Ok, so I am once again asking...because it's closer to christmas...and I was having a convo with my photog teacher...
I asked him if 160 watt-seconds would be enough...but he said I should probably go for around 300.
Now...I dono exactly...but if any of you could help that'd be great.
Lights would be approximately 6-8 feet from the model...maybe closer to 6...with softboxes most likely...
Now...could I get away with two 160 watt-second lights, like this?

Or should I go with a single 320 watt-second light like this?

and use a reflector to add fill?
Could any of you more experienced with light give me ideas of what aperture/shutter speed combo I could get out of lights like that with the subject distance to the light at about 6-8 feet?
Thank you so much if you can help me out...
