Well the practice lighting shots I did, were fun and can be done with a very inexpensive light setup. Equipment I used: 1) Photo Flood lamp with 12" reflector 2) 1 Lt Blue Poster board 3) 1 Card Table 4) 1 Cardboard Box (lights came in) 5) Reflector (could use white poster board) 6) 1 - Black piece of poster board The whole setup if you did not have any of it would set up back less than $100.00 Here is my stage (please don't laugh)
