Dexter Title Sequence Re-Edit: Evaluation

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

• One of the main conventions of title sequences that we had to consider was the consistency in style. 
• Another important convention is using a clear and legible font, which we tried to consider when completing this task.
• Title sequences often reflect the mood and theme of the show. 

How did your group plan to edit the title sequence? 

• We planned to edit the title sequence by experimenting with different fonts and effects, to try and come up with an effective theme that we could use. 
• We discussed different ideas, and tried to agree on a visual style for the text.

Explain the creative decisions made by your group.

• As a group we had to decide on the effects, font and the placement of the credits.
• As we wanted our credits to reflect the theme of Dexter, we looked for effects which would reflect Dexter's crazy and bloodthirsty character.
• We tried to create some variety in the placement of the credits.

How does your re-edit compare to the original?

• Our re-edit uses rather extreme effects and bright colours, whereas the original uses a dark red, clear font. 
• The original also has a limited use of effects, whereas we used effects on most of our text.
• Our re-edit, like the original, had the credits in different positions each time, to prevent it from being repetitive.
