So for the film I have decided to work on two main lighting setups. The first being to achieve silhouette look, so I decided to research more into lighting a silhouette (http://photography.tutsplus.com/tutorials/simple-steps-for-shooting-amazing-silhouettes--photo-2447).  The second being quite a low key lighting. 
The image below is the first lighting setup I would initially like for my film.  I like the idea of using a red filter or bulb in order to make the background red. I would shoot all of choreography like this first, and then move on to filming the choreography in a low key lighting where I use perspective to capture different angles of the choreography.

Below another image of a silhouette look I would of liked to achieve for my film, but this look would only work best with a environmental outdoor shoot.

The second lighting set up I would like is similar to the lighting shown in the "Choros" dance film.

The only problem I think would occur using a set up like this is that it would clash with the red silhouette lighting set up during the edit, and wouldn't look good. So during my lighting test shots I will be looking into, and experimenting with this lighting setup to achieve something that doesn't clash. The first approach I will take during the my lighting test shots is to use red lighting again instead of white. I will also be experimenting with coloured lighting filters/gels.
