Personal project research - INFINITY WALL

"An infinity cyclorama (found particularly in television and in film stills studios) is a cyc which curves smoothly at the bottom to meet the studio floor, so that with careful lighting and the corner-less joint, the illusion that the studio floor continues to infinity can be achieved. Cycloramas or "cycs" also refer to photography curving backdrops which are white to create no background, or green-screen to create a masking backdrop." - (October 2007). cyclorama (theatre). Available: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclorama_(theater).

The reasoning for wanting to use/build an infinity wall for the backdrop to my personal CPR project is that I want to create an illusion of a 'never ending space'. I want to have the subject in the centre of the screen in a limitless space and I think an infinity backdrop would be the best way to achieve this. Although I will not be physically realising this project I have looked into how to build one. I found a lot of helpful videos online.
