Fight Scene SFX

The fight scene in my music video is the most important scene to get the sound right as all the hits have to sound realistic and painful. I looked at some fight scenes, and in the end I used the fight scene from "Losses" as a reference. The creators of this video made a short video explianing how the made the sound for the film, including the foley for the punches, kicks etc.

I used this as a reference for the sound of the fight. I used the software Sountrack Pro which comes with over 5000 foley effects. With some mixing, I was able to get a sound for every hit and drop.

I started by dragging the edited fight scene into Soundtrack Pro

I didnt see the need to show every sound effect I used, but from this image you can see that I had different tracks for each sound and for every hit I layered certain sounds depending on the hit or surface.

 There were so many layers I had to use a second screen shot.

 

 I dragged the final video back into the time line, ready to edit.
