Default How to get Helmet on reverb

Hello Everyone,

Doing post on a sci-fi movie. Need to simulate sound of someone speaking within a helmet. Can anyone share tips on how you can do this? Not a futz sound like a radio com, but the sound of early reflections of someone speaking with a motorcycle or astronaut helmet over their heads.

Saw the Prometheus feature on Soundworks where they took an IR inside closed bowl. Search this forum and Gearslutz came up empty.

Thank you in advance. Any advice would be really appreciated.

Speakerphone by Audioease has lots of small impulses and a cover function to put sound in boxes etc.

Altiverb also has very small spaces, coal hod etc.
Fokke van Saane's impulse responses


and you could make your own fishbowl impulse and load it in if you wanted.

That's if you have a fishbowl.

You can play the voice thru one speaker and cover the speaker with something.

Slapper works very well for small spaces.....it's all in the reflection.

I recorded an Impulse Response using a glass bowl and my motorcycle helmet for a sci fi film. Worked perfectly. Good luck.

For The Martian they "worldized" by recording through the actual helmets by placing a speaker in it and recording the results. I have had great results with AltiVerb very small spaces and speakerphone.
