Andrew from Deity did this excellent guide on how pros actually mic talent on set with wireless lavs. It's not that difficult but time and time again,
I see video shooters ending up with crap sound because they don't know how to mic a talent with a lav. Just watch it and use it,
if your audio sucks, your project sucks.
Some wardrobe/situations are harder than others but if you approach it methodically and do it right, chances are you'll end up with better dialog tracks.
If you aren't going to hire a location sound mixer because your client or you are too cheap, at least give yourself a fighting chance ;-)
