got 100be and will be shooting a drummer and guitarist in a candle lit studio for a mate so he can project it behind him at gigs as he preforms. Any advice on settings for coolest or best looks?
 
LOL! Yea, a candle isn't going to help you any. So get a candle, then get a real light, and use the real light like it was the candle. The candle is just for show.

Alternately, you can get a Hollywood style electric candle. That would be better.

Expect the video to be awfully grainy.
 
You could possibly open the iris all the way, and set some gold reflectors behind the candles, but you'll still need some soft light to bring the overall level up enough to be able to see anything.
