Jimmy,
        The problem with your solution starts with price. Negatives and 
prints cost more to produce and then you have to throw in some more time and 
money for slides. Filtering effectiverly reduces your depth of field in this 
circumstance. Long exposures run into reciprocity failure.

<< FORGET the Flash - DO Not use Slide Film!!!!!
 
 Buy, rent, borrow or steal the biggest pair of rolling 'Photo Floods' You 
can 
 find.  Use Professional color print film -matched to their Kelvin 
Temperature 
 (or filter daylight film to 32-3400 K). Shoot a gray card with color scale 
on 
 each roll of film.  Use a tripod and have Your subjects pose, but move 
around 
 with a second camera  (fast lens) and try for some candid angles.  Fuji 800 
? 
 Shoot all the film You can in the time You have.
 
 If You Can't get access to Photo Floods - (make Your own) - approach would 
 still be the same.  Use 'Color Negative Film'  filtered for the lighting 
 conditions and professionally printed with color corrections. A slide can be 
 made from a color negative (& looks better) -just takes alil longer- depends 
 on Your Customer deadline.
 
 Present each exhibitor with a group of color print 'photo proofs' to find 
out 
 which one(s) they would like for You to -make into a Slide- for their 
 application.
 
 Then - CHARGE EM DOUBLE-!
