    Get the mic as close as you can.

    Good Luck!

    Yeah, lavs would be a no-no. A close hand-mic (visible in the shot) or some really close booming with a cardoid or short shot (gotta’ be a tight shot) and you’ll still have ambience but your subject will be understandable.

    Headset mic would be the other possibility if visually appropriate. There are a lot of so-so headsets out there, the Countryman E-6 “earset” is truely outstanding and a pretty low visual profile.
