What Is a Cyclorama Wall?
A cyclorama wall is a studio background built with a smooth curve, called a cove, where the wall meets the floor. Some cycs also curve where two walls meet.
Because there are no hard lines or corners, the background seems to go on forever on camera. Your subject appears to float in clean, open space.
Photographers and filmmakers also call it:
A cyc wall
An infinity wall or infinity cove
An infinity curve or seamless wall
Where Did the Cyclorama Come From?
The word cyclorama first described huge curved panoramic paintings in the 1800s. Theaters later used curved backdrops to create the illusion of open sky. Film and photography studios adopted the idea to create backgrounds that look endless on camera.

Cyc Wall vs Paper Backdrop: What Is the Difference?
A paper backdrop is a roll of seamless paper hung from a stand. It is portable and affordable, but it creases, tears and limits your shooting area.
A cyclorama wall is a permanent, curved structure built into the studio. It offers:
A larger shooting area for full-body and group shots
Room for movement, dance and video
No paper creases, tears or replacements
A more professional, infinite look
For small headshots, paper works. For fashion, video and larger productions, a cyc wall is the stronger choice.
Do You Need Special Lighting for a Cyc Wall?
Yes. The cyc only looks truly seamless when the background is lit evenly. Most photographers light the wall and the subject separately so the curve disappears.
