Hello everyone.
I am currently working on a production of Heathers The Musical. There are several instances where actors need to be shirtless on stage and I'd like to conceal their mics as best as possible. I am using Shure QLXD1 transmitters with Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier mics. I plan to mount them on their hairline.
What is the best way to hide the cable running down their back? Just tape the heck out of it? There is also an instance where an actor gets the shirt ripped off of him and then lays on his back with another actor on top of him (During the number Dead Girl Walking, it's a sex scene.) Two of the actors will also be in basically tighty whities and have some light dancing with their microphones on.
They are currently wearing a mic belt for rehearsals. My biggest issue is the cord being visible down their backs.
LASTLY, I am using a light colored element and one of my actors has very dark skin, making the element very visble. Any advice on how to disguise the color?
