Sound effects

[Ethan D]

This isnt a scripting question but a question on any good methods to make sounds.  should I actually mimic the action and record the sound to then be played.  The main problem I am having is with different footsteps (carpeting, tile, etc.,) however I am also not sure what do to for the sound of someone being stabbed considering I haven't recently stabbed anyone.  So if you all have any suggestions it would be appreciated.

It's not really a *technical* question, is it? Still...

Get a steak and a blunt knife. Have some fun. You can even eat it afterwards if you don't overdo it.

Or slap a fish against a table, as it has been done in several Bud Spencer movies.

There's tons of free sound effect sites, just google and you'll find some.
[Edit]: Adding 'foley' to your search will get you some hits too.
