Workshop - Product lighting

Task:
Produce a square shot of a bottle of beer on any surface



And here is lighting diagram:

The idea for my lighting setup:
I wanted to create long shadow of other subject fall on the main subject that's why I put the zoom reflector on one head to create harsh and long shadow. To light up a bottle of beer, I thought I might want to put the key light on the back of the beer bottle so the light can go through the glass of the bottle and light up the beer inside. I used one softbox in front of the bottle, camera left, to fill in the front. Another head through zoom reflector aimed on the white background partition although it's not necessary because the angle is from above so I didn't take reading on the white background partition.
