Best bet will be a powerful barebulb flash unit (or two). Sunpack 120J
might do the trick in a smaller space but a Quantum Q or Lumedyne may be a
better option. With "normal" flashes, even diffused and feathered, I
seriously doubt you'll achieve even lighting without a *lot* of luck. A
good flashmeter and polaroids are almost essential.
