When you work in a studio, you will need to wear an ear piece, these made-to-measure devices fit inside your ear, enabling you to hear the directors cues both discreetly and comfortably. These earpieces are moulded to fit precisely and securely within your ear.
SPECIALIST ADVICE FOR TV PRESENTERS
We normally suggest that you have both left and right pair of earpieces made. This is for the reasons below:-
1) Either ear can be used depending on the camera angle and so can be better concealed.
2) Ears SHOULD be swapped REGULARLY to reduce potential damage from too long exposure, especially during continuous live channels.
3) If suffering with an ear infection, the other ear can be used.
OUR SERVICE IS UNIQUE AND PERSONALISED
WE visit YOU at a mutually agreed venue and time, either at your studio, or your office. After careful examination of both ears using an otoscope to check if they are clear to proceed, and using a silicone based impression material, our expert will take two moulds of each ear. These impressions, which set in about five minutes, are then sent to a laboratory for making into your earpieces. The whole process of inspection and impression taking lasts about twenty-five minutes, and delivery from the lab takes about a week.
IMPRESSIONS ARE STORED FOR YOU
We will keep the impressions for an indefinite time or until they fail-perhaps five years-in case you lose your earpiece, so a replacement can be quickly ordered without taking further impressions. Just come back to this site and click on the re-order button.
