Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The backgrounds you speak of are stage settings!. To make backgrounds, you have to do just that- make them!.!.!

In school plays, on stage, they use what are called - flats!. These flats are large wood frames covered with canvas, cloth, sheets of styrofoam and even heavy paper, then painted!.!.!. They are made to be light and in-expensive!. However, if painted right and with proper lighting, they can fool most cameras into thinking they are something else other than - flats!.!.!.

Talk to people into Stage or Acting at your school or local theater where stage acting is held, I;m sure they could help and give ideas!. The backgrounds you shows us were most likely many thousands of dollars and beyond the reach of most of us!.!.

Good luck
