Would LOVE some suggestions! (samples inside)


Greetings Lighting Gurus!

I am about to shoot my \"I WANT TO BE\" project (see below) for the second time. Last year, I just set up some hot lights (softbox camera right and hair light on a boom). I borrowed the lights and they really didnt give off too much light (I was around 1/160th, f/5.6, ISO 400ish). I\'d really like to improve on the technical quality of the shots this year as I REALLY love this project.

I just got an AB1600, AB800, and AB400. I\'d like to maintain the same look of the shots...simple and clean. I have some shoot through umbrellas for the main light, but do not have a snoot for the kicker. Any suggestions on that?

Also, I will be shooting in a GINORMOUS space this year (high school gym) and can set them up anywhere I\'d like. I plan on using the \'school cream\' walls as my background.

Now, my questions:

1. Do I have to buy the snoot from AB?
2. Should I light my background or let it go gray?
3. Do you see anything below that you would change?
4. Any other suggestions?

Thanks! Here are the samples!
