'Sound guys' - people responsible for audio usually for TV production. If someone is talking with their hands in front of their mouth, their voice may not carry loudly enough to a microphone.

English is my first language. I've been speaking it for nearly 40 years. I'm currently learning Japanese and need all the help I can get!
