Speaking of different intros I think it was either Spanish or Portuguese Fox channel that made this one TV ad for upcoming Dexter season that I really liked, mostly because of the title tune:
Excellent work, both on the intro and the posters. I'm glad you're a Dexter fan AND talented designer at the same time, so the rest of us got to see this visual treat!
Mr. Mattson, get Showtime to add this video to the Season 6 DVD as a special feature.Your intro would be a great special feature or season 6 tv promo. When it comes to Dexter DVDs I wish showtime would add alot MORE behind the scenes videos, cast interviews, etc. Since Mattson Creative already has experience working with Showtime (AMAZING licensed prints for season 1-5 on sale in Showtime's online store ), it makes sense for Showtime to continue to stick with your Dexter artworks.
As far as the comparison to the actual title sequence, this is just a different take. The real Dexter title sequence is beyond brilliant, and probably the best intro that I have ever seen. This is just a different interpretation, and a tribute to the show.
Very cool, unfortunately some idiot editor from Buzzfeed is insisting that yours is better than the original in the title of his post. Which begs the comment "Nope"
This is well done, but who watches the Dexter title sequence and thinks, hey, this needs to be redone? The Dexter opening titles are better than the show itself.
great job! I looked at it and was like, "wow, that really looks like the poster for Vertigo." Then I looked it up and saw that that was done by Saul Bass!
