I think you'll be happier with beam projectors as they are pretty good.

Got a new cute little aluminium jack. It's really light, goes down to 3 inches, and best it was on sale for $90 bucks.

Temporary masking is done through the use of black stick-on masking tape that are shaped to suit specific car headlights.
We used these back-in-the-day, so as not to disturb the racoons up in the trees.
