Photography Question

Studio Lighting


Ok... I'm running out of time, here, and need some serious advice. I've gotten great advice so far on what camera to use, etc. But, now I need to know about lighting.

I am shooting a preschool in a month. I need to keep my equipment budget relatively low as I'm just starting out in this. I have an ok camera with an ok lens. I plan to use 160 NC Portra film and have found what looks to be an excellent lab. I will be using a background and will be taken your run of the mill head and shoulder shots, for the most part.

I had thought a soft box on a stand would work well, but I don't really know anything about those. I want something that's going to be economical and versatile. Is there such a thing? lol

Thanks! Brand names, websites, prices... anything you have to input is welcome!
