Backgrounds and Studio Backdrops for TV, Film, and Photography Studios
We manufacture studio backdrops for self-assembly or fully assembled on TÜCHLER studio tracks. All materials are also available by the meter.
Backgrounds and studio backdrops for video, photography, television, and film should provide a uniform, optically textureless surface that separates from the main subject. Black, gray, or white studio backdrops are the classic backdrops in film and TV studios and photography studios. Bluescreen or greenscreen backdrops along with matching floor coverings support digital keying.
Especially in television studios, our backlit backdrops made of DARK PEARL or NEVE projection film are used. For all backdrops, we offer suitable studio track systems, including switches and parking solutions.

When should I use white studio backdrops?
White studio backdrops are classic choices in almost all film, television, and photography studios. These backdrops can be evenly lit with wash lights or light ramps. These light sources are placed at the studio ceiling and the lower edge of the screen, allowing for even color gradients to be "projected" onto the studio background. These appear to the viewer as smoothly painted color shades.
To ensure these color gradients are free from shadows and other irregularities, the studio backdrop must be stretched. For this, a surrounding studio rail system is installed. The Tüchler Rail XT3 is particularly suitable for smaller setups, the Tüchler Rail TT2 for medium to large setups, and the Tüchler Rail TT1 for very large film and television studios.
Movable ladders are mounted on the vertical edges of the studio backdrop within the rail system. These ladders provide even tension to the textile. To maintain this tension, the ladder systems are locked in place both in the rail system and on the studio floor. Various tensioning devices can also be attached to the lower edge of the backdrop. The choice of tensioning devices depends greatly on the studio operators' preferences. Contact us – Tüchler customer service representatives are happy to help you find the right system for your needs.
By combining the above methods, white studio backdrops can be made completely wrinkle-free. Using wide fabrics up to 12 meters keeps the backgrounds completely seamless, resulting in an ideal, even, smooth, and textureless surface for the use of colored light.
When should I use black studio backdrops?
Black backgrounds in film and television are classics, along with white studio backdrops. While white backgrounds are used to reflect light as brilliantly and evenly as possible, black backgrounds are designed to absorb light to the maximum extent technically possible. By carefully controlling the light – that is, reducing the light output directed at the black backdrop – an optical black hole effect is created. This absolute black, devoid of any reflections, gives the illusion of infinite depth.
Materials such as muslin fabric and molton are used. However, the absolute reference class for black backgrounds in film and television studios is a backdrop made from lightSORBER DD25 stage velvet.
