I have an issue with a mic pack in about 8 seconds of film.

I know it's not an easy job but I was wondering if there were any VFX editors who were up for a challenge.

I don't …

A visible mic is probably a very easy job. If you provide the file I'll have a go at it today. No need to pay or anything else.
