Insight on lighting multiple subjects akin to Vogue group shoot

Insight on lighting multiple subjects akin to Vogue group shoot

Hi all,

Would love to know how these are typically lit, for the purpose of being able to replicate it with likely less lights and smaller sources. Just inferring, but is there a giant overhead softbox with two or more lights on stands filling in everything else?

I have a client using this as a reference for a group photo of 7 cast members. Obviously I know I won't be able to replicate this in its entirety, but I'd like to know if 4 continuous lights on stands would at least be able to cancel out harsh shadows in addition to framing everyone properly.
