Low-key lighting

I haven't done too much low key lighting but I find it helps to have fairly strong units so you can stop down to expose for it properly leaving your surrounding areas fairly dark. This helps to build some contrast. Hard units also help to avoid excess spill.
 
with low key light the one thing you have to make sure is you don't get to big of a shadow under the chin. I have done it using a bounce board and keeping the light up high.
 
Look at my response in tne DVX technical forum...and try not to cross post when possible..not to be a mod or anything :)
Peace,
