3)if you have a little budget try a chimera box-

more pro even lighting and can withstand more temperature.

4)if you are stuck with the construction light try bouncing it off a large white surface onto your subject. you could buy a big piece of foamcore for instance or even a large piece of cardboard, paint it white.
thing is, you might need two construction lights to bounce sufficient light at this point, depends on the area you want to light.
Thanks Gari, I will try to find a place here that will carry these. Until then I will try the foamcore to see what will happen.

What are your thoughts about sound? I know I should script these clips out and have some dialogue, but I am not sure exactly where to start.
