Pulse headsets were what we planned on using however due to artistic integrity the musical director/producer has decided that he wants to mics to be completely invisible. So therefore we are going to have to use the Sennhieser mke 2 with make up protector which can be put through the actors forehead hair line instead of round their ear and along their cheek. Which admittedly does make it much more visible but makes the sound so much better than having it at the top of the actors forehead which is naturally blocked by the face, this will make it much harder for us as the sound team as we will have to really boost the less experiences singers who hold a lot of the main roles in the Billy Elliot production.
Theese pictures shows the difference between using a concealed head microphone and using a visible facial one. The bonus is of coarse how much better the microphone picks up the sound, although the bonus of a concealed microphone is in upholding artistic integrity by not having a visible microphone.
