I was very concerned with how to approach mic placement on Savvy. She’s wearing multiple layers of different materials and has this bag on in every scene. I was concerned the bag would put too much pressure on the lav, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it actually worked out for the better.
The bag strap isn’t as taught as I expected. It actually hangs in such a way to create a nice little air pocket for the mic. And then the bag is a perfect place to keep the pack.
So going forward, I’d like to request every actor on every set I work on be outfitted with a bag like this. I absolutely refuse to work with sans-bag talent.
