I'm wondering what you consider to be a foley studio? From what you describe it
sounds like you are planning an isolation booth (or two).
A real foley studio is a larger, soundproof room that typically has a floor or
pit with removable sections of flooring that expose different surfaces
Hi Matt
While what Dave says is true, it is still possible to do something
workable with little money. By not having parallel walls you can eliminate
standing waves. The space between the walls and the 'false' non-parellel
walls (and ceiling if possible) can be filled with insulating material of
I recommend you contact Jay Beck at Carleton College. He's been developing
an exciting sounds studies program there (within film) and I believe foley
is a part of it.

Hi folks,
We are looking at constructing a sound booth that would ideally operate as
a foley space as well. There is an existing classroom space roughly 15' by

that can be purchased and constructed up to renovating the space

I doubt you'll find good models at other schools. In my travels, college sound
facilities have either been created from the ground up as part of an expensive
building project, or jury rigged into some existing space so cheaply and poorly
they're barely worth having. If you can find any
