Hey Everyone,
I recently filmed a pretty cool fight scene for short film, "Forsaken Road". Now in the fight scene is actually between our hero, using his staff, and a bandit who pulls out a baseball bat. It looks great, but since my actors weren't obviously beating eachother to a pulp, the fight is rather silent. Whenever I look online for sound effects, they sound extremely cheesy and fake when I layer them over the fight in editing, ESPECIALLY the punches. Any ideas from someone who has edited a fight scene on how I can go about carrying out the sound effects?
