Lavs Mics

One thing to keep in mind when using a lavaliere microphone is the placement of it one the subject. Place it too close or far away from the microphone and the sound might be inaudible. Also, if the mic is placed somewhere underneath the subjects chin, the sound might become muffled, leading to lower quality audio overall. Another tip to remember when using lavs is to hide the microphone well. Even though a lot of people are used to seeing lavs on peoples shirts during interviews or YouTube videos, it would look a lot better if the mic was hidden. One strategy is to hide the microphone underneath someones shirt, allowing them to be heard and also keep the mic  away from view. Finally one more thing to remember about lavs is if their wired or wireless. A wired lav gives the subject less room to move around, while a wireless lav allows this. The main problem with wireless lavs is the frequency that they use. One question I still have is how to properly set up a wireless lav. I've set up a wired lav before, but I have almost no experience with the wireless ones.
