Time Based- Studio Lighting and Creating Form

In Time Based we learnt how to create form in photography using lighting. 
I took a few notes:
-Use the barn doors on the light to concentrate the light.
-Use a stronger setting of light to create a more intense form with stronger shadows and highlights.
-Use a weaker setting of light to create a softer form with a more naturally 3D look.
-Raise or lower the light in order to get a different form and shadow angle.

Here are some of the pictures I took along with diagrams of my setup:





Next time I would instead move the object closer to the camera and light, this would give a more atmospheric and professional feel to the structure and proportion of the the form.
