Tips for Shooting Multiple LCD Monitors at DVinfo.net

Sorry if this belongs elsewhere. I thought I'd post here since we are shooting on a AG-HPX170...
I have a shoot coming up that involves a hardware demo with six LCD monitors. It's being shot in a fairly small studio (maybe about a 20x20' room) with black drape background. We have two Lowell 500W omnis with umbrellas for key and fill with a blue-gelled single 5K fluorescent with lightbox for backlighting. There will also be at least one, if not two on camera talent. (Compositing is a last resort, of course...) Any tips on minimizing the light suck of these monitors? Thanks in advance.
