Steve has the right solution for a single person medium to CU shot.
You can also buy a 150w photoflood and hang it for a backlight.
However one caveat: you are dealing with a lot of different color
temperatures. Make sure you balance for the most pleasing.
If you have the money, rent a 1000w nun for the key, use the foamcore
for fill, and work your backlight any way you can. This system, by
the way, if positioned correctly, can take all light reflection off
glasses. If you have furniture in the shot, use a practical lamp for
backlight or background light.
Happy shooting.
