The Ansel rules for that combo would be to place the Indian skin at zone four or five, depending on how dark you wanted it to appear. You would then ignore everything else in the image and expose for that value. It's really quite simple.
The question that begs asking is why is he deliberately underexposing the film, since he is in a controlled lighting situation, with, one would presume, a cooperative subject?
