    uniE608 Dexter Title Sequence Parody

I've always been intrigued by VFX & Cinematography shots in Film, and TV Shows, which leads my mind to think, how did they do that, & the question is, how can I? Produced in After Effects, Premiere Pro, & Borisfx Silhouette. "The forecast today is showers with a hint of the Macabre" - Dexter Morgan
