chriskellett Posted May 23, 2014 Report Posted May 23, 2014 Mattin: " The shoot starts and this guy turns his head... " BTW: you weren't booming "the guy", because..? As he already posted an answer to your question, it was a wide master. Quote
studiomprd Posted May 23, 2014 Report Posted May 23, 2014 I've boomed lots of wide masters... maybe a Fisher..? Quote
MattinSTL Posted May 24, 2014 Report Posted May 24, 2014 Since Chris already answered I won't repeat it... The actual resolution, which I should've insisted upon, is forget hiding a mic... If they could hide a mic on Brian Williams as well as every other national news personality... they would. The moral of the story is there are circumstances and wardrobes which discourage hiding a lav if you expect quality audio. I've successfully hidden mics on talent many times in the past... this thread is about wardrobe and the challenges that may arise. Quote
mikewest Posted November 9, 2014 Report Posted November 9, 2014 Firstly it depends what lav you are using, and what alternative lavs you have. Then it is up to your skill and past experience of rigging to get a good result. Love the other posts on this! But yeah have a friendly chat with your wardrobe folk to reach a solution. Quote
James Louis Posted April 15, 2017 Report Posted April 15, 2017 Depending on your industry and it's nefarious customs (and costumes) often starched clothing, including flame retardation on work clothes, much of which is synthetic to boot, will end up being returned by a wardrobe stylist. So the fabric softener back home won't be an option. To treat and mount these materials is part of the craft, and I will respect the tone of the thread thus far; there's plenty of research material here on the boards. Quote
