Dexter in 2 Minutes

In celebration of the new season coming out, I thought I might put together a short flash video that sums up Dexter for all of those who haven't had the pleasure of seeing it. I did all the animation and story work, my friend and i voiced the characters. I recorded the opening theme song myself to fit my animation, and the final song was recorded by youtube user aleksandersk. It was completed in about two weeks and I'm fairly pleased with it.

Special thanks to Showtime and everyone behind the show itself, and if you've never watched it before there's no time like the present!

Wow!

Wow... when i typed in dexter theme i didn't expect to get anything good .... You did a great job! I literally laughed my ass off.... o and dexter is the best show

I love this show...

But it feels like you didn't cover much at all. There's more to the show than Doakes, Rita and kiling. That reminds me, have you even seen the show?

LOL

i just love the show im exited for the third season to come out (im mexican and i watch the show in fox so its 3° season for me)
the flash was very funny but you should have used real quotes from the show it would make it funnier
9/10 5/5

And now...

I need to watch the show.
Good explanation, but you lack in art and animation

I think I've been had.

I'm a huge Dexter fan, and at first I thought this was actually going to be a quick comedic rundown of stuff like the Ice Truck Killer, Lila, Miguel, etc. It started off quite well, with the direct quote from Dexter Morgan, along with the hilariously exaggerated portrayal of Doakes and Rita.

But the 'twist' halfway kind of threw me off, and maybe it's just the Dexter fan-geek in me talking, but I didn't like it because Rita's phonecalls are, I think, relatively trivial in the series. What about the Code of Harry, Dexter's childhood, or the times Dexter almost got caught? Focusing on those (especially the Code) would have made a much better caricature of the series.

The cartoon representations were actually quite accurate. You really caught the classic Dexter expression and facial features! The animation and audio was also quite good. The huge room-spin at Rita's first call was a good example of good animation, and the music was comfortably close enough to Dexter's. Voicing was spot-on for Dexter and Doakes too. =) (Although Rita could have used a pitch-shift. Use Audacity.)

Fianlly, Masuka. Needed a bit of Masuka's perviness. =P

But yeah, I am psyched for Season 4. YAY SON OF DEXTER, and YAY YOU for making this toon!
