This is really dependent on multiple factors, the throw distance and amount of coverage required, if you are using the back of your CYC is it 3' off the rear wall of the stage? Or a greater distance, do you want a soft or sharp image, I would recommend playing with some of your theatrical fixtures to see what works the best for you.

Subject: Light for Shadow Play
Hello,
I am looking for suggestions for a light source for a devised piece we are doing. We are exploring some of the images in our piece with shadow play behind the cyc. So far, the clearest and sharpest images are made with our phone light. Does anyone have any experience with this? We are looking to create shadow images with our bodies mostly.
Many Thanks!
