Kasey,
I back light is a light to light the background behind your subjects.
this light should be placed between you subject and pointed towards your background, this lights up the background and also gives deph to your image.
For what your doing you will need at least a Main light and a back light.
A fill would give you better lighting but you could pull it off with out it.
I hope this helps,
Debby
