So I took the white seamless to the next step and had a backdrop setup for my NYE party.  Lighting people required a bit more power.  I had two SB600s one on the left and one on the right at 1/4 power to blow out the white muslin backdrop.  Seamless would’ve been better but muslin I could borrow.  Main light was a SB900 set at 1/8 against  a 43inch umbrella.  You can see from the light shadow on their face that the SB600s spilled a bit.  My shooting distance was pretty tight and unfortunately could not block all the spill off.  Overall, I’m pretty happy with the results.  Oh, and in case you’re wondering where I got chalkboard speech bubbles, I made them.  Tutorial here
