    I am looking for fighting sounds for a fight in my upcomming movie. I checked through all the clips from the sound files extracted from Enter The Matrix from the Sound Bunker, but 95% were so short, they were less than 1 second and WMP would just scan over them.

    I got a few but I was wondering if anybody knew of any others.

    Making your own sounds is fairly easy. I did it for one of our movies and the effects turned out great. Use a good mic and some celery. Put the celery on a folded up towel or pillow and whack it with a dowl about 1/2" in diameter. You good a good nice "whoosh" and "fwap" with some good crunching.

    For body shots, just slap the towel with the dowel. (cool, rhymed.) I just recorded these into a mini-disc in my garage (pieces of celery will fly) and it worked out great.

    If you don't have the ability to make your own sounds, check the kung fu section of sound bunker. They have a lot of excellent whooshes and thwacks in there that are a lot longer than the etm extracts.
