3m × 5m Cyclorama for Aerial Photography — Looking for Ideas

**Looking for ideas for a portable DIY cyclorama/backdrop for aerial photography**

I’m a photographer primarily shooting **circus aerialists, especially aerial silks**, and I’m looking for ideas for a portable backdrop setup I can take into different circus schools.

A lot of the schools have pretty ugly walls, mats, equipment, etc., so I want to create a controlled studio-looking space without spending a fortune.
What I’m thinking about:
\-Around **3 m wide**
\-Around **5 m of total fabric,** with roughly 3 m going vertically and 2 m extending onto the floor
\-Ideally a **curved transition from wall to floor**, similar to a small cyclorama/infinity wall
\-Needs to be reasonably portable and break down for transport
Preferably DIY and modular rather than buying an expensive commercial cyclorama

I’ve seen DIY builds using **aluminum T-slot extrusion, metal track, or flexible track** where the bottom can curve from vertical to horizontal, but I can’t remember exactly what system I saw.

I’m also open to completely different approaches if there are better ways to make an ugly circus school look great for photography.

I would like the backdrop to be self standing only.

**What would you build? Any specific materials, products, or DIY examples I should look at?**
