I am shooting on a lighting stage this sunday and need to film a scene that is in a hospital.. it is supposed to be very surreal - the walls will be alle white (White sheets drapped down) and there will be just a stretcher and a metal table with tools. What is the best way to light this scene? What do i need to keep in mind while lighting a room to be all white. I dont want there to be any shadows. Any tips or hints will be great... ill have all the lights up above and can bring a 4 piece omni kit (totas).
 
How big is your room? I've recently shot something very similiar recently and used space lights. They're cheap to rent but you need a lot of juice to run them. You can get 1K, 2K, 6K and 12K versions. I used 9x 6K's to light approx 1000 square feet and that was more than enough.
 
depending on what format you are shooting and how big of an area, you might be able to get away with hitting 2 of your lights onto a 12' x 12' silk on either side of the stage.
2x 12'x12' silks with two lights each behind. Hope that makes sense.
