What do I need to get photos with a unifom black background (not with post)?

How can I get a pure black background when taking portraits, just like in following picture?

enter image description here

For example, in this video Mark Wallace is using inverse square law, to get that effect, but when I try, my background is not black, as it should be. Where I'm getting it wrong?

I note that your question can be read as suggesting that the background in this picture has been achieved "in camera" - but you may in fact be only using it as an example of a black background, and not saying that it was necessarily achieved in-camera. \$\endgroup\$
