Dramatic Lighting

we accomplished this photo with one light to the right of the subject this creates a sharp shadow on the other side of the photo. the background is used up with a black queen sheet to get the black in the back. i used a f/8 at 1/8 exposure at a ISO of 320. the only thing i would have to do would decrees the ISO so the noise is not so noticeable. to add to this if you wanted a less intense shadow you can place a light to the left of the subject to see more of the face
