Thanks for all the responses, I probably have enough info here to get
going. The look I'm going for is a dramatic one, similar to some of the
more dramatically lit 80s movies (Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom)
where'd they almost always have one side of the face lit and the other
side dark, etc.. not a very natural look but this is the look I'd like
to attain.
