Provide detailed descriptions from chosen examples that establish… Clearly state what production technique(s) you think have
been used to create specific soundtrack elements
Setting It is set in the future and the past where you visit your ancestors by using the
animus which reads your dna and reconstructs your ancestors memory’s for you to
relive its set in the Caribbean where the French and Spanish are at a Cautious time
of peace but it was still in the slave business you are in a French Controlled
Caribbean islands
It’s a band which is license to create music for
this game and its professionally recorded in studio
and editor I assume but it’s a very simplistic song
it was not be an actual song more a backing for
the game because listening to it alone its quite
short and not full of content
Mood Serious Happy Concerned but quickly turns to anger when its talks about the slavery
which is portrayed in the game since the main character was a slave in the previous
game but broke free thanks to that main character
Its normally the same song but its normally quite
sad and like what you do doesn’t matter hugely
and the music reflects this with slight orchestral
music its not a full band its just backing music to
talking
Game genre Action
Third person
Adventure
Stealth
The game genre is normally used in stealth and
rpg games so no intense music its open to the
game designer what music he wants to use and
this game uses vocal music
Narrative The narrative is that the game is dlc to Assassins creed 4 where the main character
is a slave abroad a ship with the main character and quickly are forced to be
attached and Claim and lay waste to the slave ships because there stopped in a
storm and get away after that game he departs from he’s friend and saviour to
pursue a better cause to fight for instead of money and Loot he ends up shipwreck
on the French island after having to sail away from several Spanish man of wars in
his frigate but he quickly gets thrown overboard and ends up on a French slave
island where he in turn being a slave himself helps the slaves overthrow the French
and free the slaves and build a utopian where all are free and equal
The song with goes with this is about the slavery
and not letting go and doing what you need to do
rather doing what draws least attention and what
they need you to do its based all around having to
free slaves so you can break free from the French
to create your own nation
