Abstract: The invented apparatus is a backdrop system for displaying and storing one or several backdrops to use in a photographic studio, video productions or other instances where a backdrop may be desired and for easy carrying to on-site jobs. The backdrop is attached to a rolling system, which comprises a backdrop core in the shape of a tube or spindle and at least one roller containing an internal bi-directional drive means and a power supply unit. The rolling system is controlled by the control system containing a control unit and a command unit, thus allowing automated scrolling of different backdrop scenes and lowering a desired backdrop from a plurality of rolling systems when the appropriate scene is found. A control mechanism is applied to the backdrop system to ensure the backdrop is properly wound upon the rolling system each time.
