If you have booked our cyclorama for a production, here are some guidelines to follow:

Before your shoot, communicate with our studio to ensure that the cyclorama will be set up and ready for your arrival. Ask any questions you may have about the space or the equipment available.

Inspect the cyclorama: Before you start using the cyclorama, inspect it for any damage or wear and tear. Make note of any obstacles so that you can work around them during your shoot.

Cycloramas are often made of fragile materials and can be easily damaged or dirtied. Make sure to take care when moving equipment around the set, and avoid dragging anything across the cyclorama surface. Microfibre brooms and mops are provided if needed to clean up footprints or any dust for a perfect clean shot.


It's important to use soft, even lighting to avoid casting shadows or creating hotspots. Roller door can be opened for natural light. Bar lights provided for extra lighting if needed. Tons of power points and extension leads are also provided if you bring your own lighting.

Throughout your shoot, keep an eye on the cyclorama to make sure it remains clean and undamaged. If you notice any issues, alert our studio immediately so that repairs can be made if necessary.

When you're finished using the cyclorama, clean up any equipment and debris on the set. Make sure to leave the space in the same condition you found it in, so that it's ready for the next production.

Cancellation policy: Flexible with Grace Period
