White umbrellas make people look dead, not good. Use a large silver reflector and correct wrinkles and skin blemishes in Photoshop. Normal healthy skin does have a certain amount of moisture content, so some small degree of sheen is normal and healthy looking. Matte flat looking skin and eyes are not normal.
Contrary to video (1:08), a black background on a translucent white umbrella does not actually reflect any additional lighting back onto the subject. Instead, the black backing simply absorbs any light which would normally pass through the white translucent material. If you truly want to gain that light intensity back, your umbrella must have an interior which is both more reflective and less translucent – such as an umbrella with a non-translucent white plastic or rubber interior.
i dont know if you recall when they were touring with linkin park, craig asked anyone that was willing to pay him that lived in the redwood city area to contact him, and my friend emailed him cause she had a cousin that lived there and he was willing to lend his home, and craig accepted and so it was arranged.

@stewartx5 I was about to write the same thing you did. An outer cover that is silvered would reflect some of the light back through.
