Color Guard Backdrops


Backdrops are great ways to bring colors to the field and show.  If your show is a little misunderstood, or if the concept is hard to get across, a backdrop can help your ideas come to life.

One way to put up back drops is to use PVC pipe and connectors to build a backdrop frame, then use fabric to create color or paint pictures on the fabric.

Need help designing your backdrop?  Ask the Theater or Art department at your local college or high school to come up with something perfect!

To transfer your backdrop design from paper to a large cloth backdrop, a good idea is to use a transparency projector.  Simply copy your design onto a transparency sheet (using a copy machine) then hang your backdrop fabric against a wall, then use the projector to project your image onto the backdrop.  Now take a marker or pencil and trace the projected image onto the backdrop fabric.  Voila! a perfect backdrop transfer.
