John as given you the best solutions. There is no such thing as a gel that will only affect the lab coats — but not the faces of the people wearing them.
You must actually darken the lab coat — or use colored ones. That’s what we did for all the hospital scenes I did for years on soap operas, or even the white tops worn by the chiefs (such as Emeril) on the cooking shows, or even on a current show I light (THE DR OZ SHOW) ……in which Dr OZ wears colored scrubs and the “Assistant” is in a dyed down white coat.

I would not attempt this without an HMI package — probably PARS, but fresnels would be acceptable — ranging from 6kw to 12kw.

Be careful Bill. Mark’s LOWELL lights are like children to him. Insulting his lights will REALLY piss him off! 🙂

When I’ve lit miniatures/models I used dedolights (especially with the projection attachments) and ARRI pocket Pars (with the fiber optic attachments). You could also buy (or rent) a simple fiber optic illuminator and create your own lighting “instrumentation”.
Don’t discount the effectiveness of 150 watt and 300 watt fresnels, nor the simple MR-16 “birdie”.
Use an overhead Kino-Flo (or make your own space light) to create your base illumination.DS
