Invisible iem

For this mornings first session of the Willow Creek Global Leadership Summit (#wcagls) we performed a piece called "Be Here Now" written by Blaine Hogan. It's an amazing work of video projection in the background with text while Blain is walking around to different points on the stage so the video crew can frame a shot of him with the words in the background.

There is a music bed playing and a cue track of the words that appear on the screen. Blaine needed to hear the cue track but did not want to have to wear iem's since that would look a little goofy on video.

The solution was to bobby pin a pair of Shure E3's right inside the collar of his shirt on the back of his neck. I actually didn't think this would be loud enough for him to hear his cues over the pa but it worked well.
