Dexter Opening - Shape Theory

Dexter Opening Credits

In this film we learn about how shapes effect our view and what we think about each section of the film

In this film opening there was no blood or any living thing being hurt but they use shapes to create a sensation of someone being hurt in the video.Each of the section in the opening gives the viewers a perspective of how he torture his victims even though there was nothing being harm in the scene.

In this scene we can see him smiling after slapping the mosquito. This shows that he feels good killing other animals and human.

In this scene we see him bleeding from his blade shaving his beard. after he pick up a piece of napkin and clean up his blood it shows the blood entering the napkin creating sensation of someone being hurt.

This part where he cut a piece of meat for his breakfast. It represent how he cut and torture his victims and how he rip his victims meat into pieces. In the next scene it shows him eating the piece of meat he cooked. This means that he is enjoying the meal just like he enjoyed killing and torturing people.

In this part it shows Dexter breaking an egg for his breakfast. It also represent a person's head being break when he killed them. Also after he finish frying his egg it shows him cutting the egg, It represent a human eye being cut apart. After that part there are ketchup splashing in front of the camera which represent human blood splashing when he kills them.

The way he hold the coffee maker or what ever it is represent how her torture people by drowning them. There is a evidence for this when there are bubbles coming out from the drink which represent the victim drowning in water.

When hes cutting the orange it represent the way hes cut his victim head and tear the brain out. There are evidence to support this when he squeezed the juice out of the orange but the orange looks red like blood and brain coming out.

This shows when he is tying his shoes for work. But in other perspective is it shows how hard he strangled his victims or how hard he tie them before murdering them.
