I tried it turned up. Just doesn’t do it for me.
Getting the black background is relatively easy. Getting a white one is more difficult. You will need two flash units. the flash lighting the background can be a cheap slave unit ($20 or less). You need to light a white wall or sheet with a flash so that it is a couple of stops overexposed then adjust your main flash for the subject. You will have to play with the slave to get even lighting on the background though. Its good to have some separation between the background and subject so you can keep it our of focus. there are a bunch of YouTube videos on this subject.
