DEXTER Title Sequence Re-edit Evaluation

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1J5RWshYyQ&feature=plcp

1) Summarise the conventions of title sequences that were most important to this task.

• Colour and font to match the genre of the show
• The ordering of the credits
• Where they are in relation to what is happening on the screen
• The timing (when they appear, how long they appear for)

2) How did your group plan to edit the title sequence?

• Thought about timings, everyone should have an equal amount of time
• Decided on an order according to people's roles

3) Explain the creative decisions made by the group

• Thought of where to place the titles
• Decided to make them fit in with what was happening on screen
• Chose the colour white as it stood out from the dark background
• Kept the font simple but clear (reflective of Dexter's persona)

4) How does your re-edit compare to the original?

• Similar in a way as they were both simple and allowed the audience to read them
• The original sequence had a lot more names which we should have included and lasted longer on screen than ours
• The font was similar but the colour was red which could have connoted blood and was quite dark theme wise
