For the image below, I used three small A/C units to illuminate the background, one A/C unit in an umbrella behind the camera and another A/C unit in a 24 x 32 inch softbox at camera right.

You need a minimum of one but depending on the "look" you're after you may need to add on one or more to it. ...Leo
