Building An Underwater Photography Backdrop Holder

One of the biggest frustrations shoot underwater in the pool is keep wrinkles and lines out of the backdrops. It makes editing a pain! Check out today's video where Will walks you through the entire process of building a backdrop holder out of PVC you can use and remove from the pool! Shooting underwater projects will be covered in our up-and-coming in-person workshop, The Water Workshop in May 2023!

It is interesting how you work. Thank you for this insight. The idea with the tubes is good.
I work differently but have a very similar result. I had a loop sewn into the fabric at the bottom. One tube goes in there. At the top I have water boxes that stand on the fabric. Simple. I never use lead. If it falls down, the pool is damaged. Water boxes are weightless in the water.

Will I would love to see a final product with a backdrop attached. Thanks.
