Posted: July 4, 2019 |
In virtual content creation, creating images and motion pictures that can be viewed in 360° degrees angle is an important aspect of production. The technique is usually accomplished with curved a background known as a cyclorama. The technique is used in newsrooms, film production, YouTube content creation and photography. It creates unique angles through which virtual content can be viewed. For anyone venturing into videography, cinematography and photography, a cyclorama background is a necessary and worthwhile investment. A good studio cyclorama should be easy to assemble. Setting up the cyclorama should be hassle-free. There is no need to purchase costly, complex and strenuous equipment while there is a cheaper alternative such prepping a wall for production. However, although using drywall and painting is cheap, it is an equally cumbersome activity that requires hired help. After investing in production equipment, one should not struggle with expenses like set up. At most the cyclorama should be assembled by two people maximum and the setup duration is approximately an hour. The advantage of the easy-to-assemble cycloramas is that no on-site construction is required. The components are packaged in a pre-finished state ready for joining. A good quality studio cyclorama must be able to stand independently. Support structures require a lot of space and limit the configuration possibilities of a cyclorama. A stable cyclorama also eliminates risks such as components falling and other disruptions in the process of recording. A freestanding cyclorama enables one to access studio walls without obstructions or the possibility of mechanical accidents. Furthermore, it does not interfere with the studio’s insulation system, heat-proofing, electrical or mechanical systems. Therefore, the systems require no modifications to accommodate the cyclorama. A good cyclorama should be configured to fit into any studio space. Its modules should be adjustable to at least 90° or 45° corners. It would be an expensive endeavor to buy new cycloramas for very relocation for virtual content creators. The cyclorama should be flexible; hence, able to be accommodated in any studio space. A cyclorama fitted with a green screen is equally cost-effective for a virtual content creator. The green screen backdrop eliminates the need for setting up a backdrop wall. Setting up drywall, painting and sanding are activities that are not required with a cyclorama with a green screen. An even better solution for this type of cyclorama are screens that come with a ground sweep. After setting up the cyclorama, content creation can resume. When purchasing a cyclorama, the key aspects to focus on aside from functionality and quality is the setup time, and its ability to be modified into different configurations in relation to the studio space. Virtual content producers only need to perfect their content-producing skills with good quality cyclorama. A good cyclorama eliminates post adjusting while recording or capturing virtual content. Once the keying processes is completed content creation can commence. It also removes the need to use software to edit the quality of images. While the cost of a good cyclorama can be high. Its benefits supersede the pricing. It saves time and money. It also enables virtual content creators to focus on production and editing thereby leading to the creation of quality content.
