White cyc is a stage background used to make the semblance of limitless space or sky. It is excellent for video and still photography allowing CGI effects to be added to the image. The major advantage of a white filming stage is the capability of making the background just about disappear making all sorts of chances for lighting, and allows for the photographer’s's subject being filmed to be center of stage.
Today’s technology makes it possible for a line of white cyclorama products to be developed to meet the growing demand for white cyc backgrounds in a large number of environments and applications. This makes it possible for acameraman to have his own white stage in his very own studio without the requirement for hiring a studio with a white stage. The ideas of simple assemble and smaller white stage backgrounds came from the founder of Pro Cyc name Fritz. Fritz built his dream white studio in Portland Oregon. The investment of time and money were great and construction workers worked for weeks building the studio out of plywood and drywall. During construction Fritz kept exclaiming, “There has to be a neater way to build a white cyclorama studio?”
Fritz was given his chance to check out his idea while building his second white stage background in Portland after his first white cyc background suffered water damage while filming a special effect. Fritz’s second white cyc studio is still being use in Portland Oregon today and is being rented out to consumers like : Freightliner, Nike, Adidas, and Steinway among many others using the versatile studio. The studio has been repainted about four hundred times since opening, but the walls still remain smooth as the 1st day they were installed.
The revolutionary patented molds developed by Fritz makes his company Pro Cyc one of the planet’s leading manufacturers of modular white cyc background systems. Pro Cyc’s research and development is constantly developing new ideas and products to meet the ever-changing needs and demands of today’s media and high-tech industries.
Pro Cyc works closely with their buyers making sure they’re achieving the most practical answer for their wants. Pro Cyc’s engineering can bespoke design white cyc sets to meet the specialized and demanding wants of their clients. In 2007 pro Cyc enter into the personal studio market with anew release line reducing cyc technology down to the scale of a desktop, which smashed the barrier of catalogue photography.
