Setting
This scene is based in the USA in a place named North Yankton. The weather is very
cold as it is snowing and the roads are icy. This scene takes place inside a cemetery

grave yard and one of the characters is digging up
a grave.

cemetery, feel eerie. The sound is like a boat horn which goes on for a while.
The computer generated sound creates a vibe

created.
Game genre
This game to me seems like an action adventure e.g. you get to adventure life in Los
Santos as a maniac, a gang member or a retired bank robber. Also. This game is a
third person shooting game.
Furthermore this soundtrack for this cut scene
works very well towards the game genre as it
glorifies the style of the game e.g. a dangerous
upsetting lifestyle in which some of the characters
suffer.
Narrative
During this cut scene a guy name Trevor Phillips is digging up a grave expecting
there to be money hidden their by his friend Michael De Santa. Instead Trevor finds

the cut scene as it creates an urge to see whats in
