A cyclorama is a studio wall that curves seamlessly into the floor, so nothing in the frame shows where the wall ends and the background simply runs out of edges. The one at SkyLight is 8×6 m, deep enough to park a car on, in Dubai Investment Park 2. You rent it by the hour and shoot your own work: photo from 700 AED for a two-hour block, video from 750 AED per hour, plus 5% VAT.
Book the cyc when the background has to disappear: e-commerce packshots that will be cut out later, fashion on white or on colour, talking-head and testimonial video, dance and movement, group shots that need space behind the camera. Book a themed set instead — the loft, the kitchen or the container — when the frame should read as a real room rather than an empty one. Both sit under the same roof, so a shoot can start on the cyclorama and finish on a set without changing location.
Photo bookings on the cyclorama start at two hours: 700 AED for two hours, 1,400 for a half day, 2,000 for six hours and 2,500 for a full day with the ninth hour free. Video runs at the video rate from 750 AED per hour and reserves the whole studio, so nobody else is working a zone next to your set. Full tables sit on the photo studio rental price and video studio rental pages, and there is a longer walkthrough of the zone in our guide to the cyclorama wall.
Two hours is the honest minimum for stills — one to light and test, one to shoot. Movement, cars and anything with a crew usually needs four. Tell us the shoot type on WhatsApp and we will hold the slot; the studio is open daily 10:00–22:00.
