Aiden Kelly Provide detailed descriptions from chosen examples of sounds that establish… Clearly state what production technique(s) you think have been used to create specific soundtrack elements

Setting This seems to be a robot that is doing tests or creating something. For example could be another robot like itself. Throughout the cut scene you can tell how it secluded this area must be and that it must be classified things happening with the cut scene.

VST must have been used for this cut scene. I think this because VST could have helped by changing normal audio clips into more futuristic and robotic noises.

Mood The mood seems to be very dark and mysterious, trying to make you guess what is going on within the cut scene. However the mood changes all of aa sudden. Which then changes the mood of the cut scene

This could have been done by either VST or MIDI Plug-ins. This is because to get the right music and melody for this cut scene I think that they will have made their own music for it using the MIDI keyboard, or VST plug-ins.

Game genre Action/Adventure VST/ field recording would have been used for certain sound effects for this cut scene and the whole game.

Narrative There is not really much narrative in the cut scene other than the robot saying how the other being is nearly ready/ done testing.

The narration for this cut scene would have been recorded by using studio environment.
