The titles sequence that i want to review is the opening theme to the TV show Dexter which is about the life of a blood analyst who works with the police on a regular basis to catch serial killers. All the while Dexter is hiding the fact that he too is a serial killer who hunts down acquitted murders and seeks vengeance.
The opening theme shows us the morning routine of Dexter Morgan and takes us through him waking up to him going to work and everything in between. I feel that the title sequence is very good as it shows us the dark side to everything he does. A good example of this is when he cuts into some meat that at first looks like human flesh but as we soon see it turns out to be bacon. This sequence is visually pleasing and shows us how everything can be seen in two was just like how Dexter feels in his everyday life.
Another good title is the titles for Lord of war a film about the life of a gun merchant. This Title scene is shows what happens when a bullet is produced, shipped and then finally used. It is visually pleasing as it gives a first person view from the bullet and shows us what it sees, so to speak.
I feel that the title to Dexter would be a better title for our movie but instead of showing a lighter side i think we could show the darker side of the main character showing how she has a dark side because of what happened to her family.
