Bubblebee Industries The Spacer Bubble

The Bubblebee Industries Spacer Bubble is a modular windshield for shotgun microphones: a mesh base for indoor work and a long-haired fur cover that slips over it when the shoot moves outside.

The base slides onto the microphone on a rubber mount and wraps it in noise-free mesh over a coarse foam core. On its own it cuts plosives and the air noise of fast boom swings. Outdoors, the Long-Haired Spacer Cover goes over the base in seconds for full wind protection, with no need to stop and swap windshields. A Short-Haired Spacer Cover for lighter wind is sold separately. Between takes, the base and cover go into the included mesh storage bag, which also lets a wet cover dry.

The Spacer Bubble comes in black, red, chroma green, and chroma blue. On a multi-mic shoot the colors tell the boom microphones apart at a glance, and the chroma versions blend into green and blue screens, so the mic can come closer to the actor. Sizes run from XS to XL, plus an XS+ and Big Mount versions of the XS and XL; the Sizing tab lists the microphones each size fits.
