We applied these shape theories to a Tv show opening known as "Dexter".
The opening of this Tv show shows a man who works as a police getting prepared by following a typical boring morning routine. However, the director has made it exciting by combining shapes together to symbolise the man's violence.
This scene shows blood soaking into the tissue paper. The deeper meaning of this may be the fact that he is trying to dispose the evidence by cleaning up the blood of his victim.
This is the scene where he cuts the meat with a sharp triangle shaped knife, fries it, then eats it from the knife. The meat can be seen as human flesh, and the fact that he eats it can suggest that he is a carnivore. The action of eating the meat from the knife is also a violent action.
An egg is being cut in half with a knife in this scene. The egg can be seen as an eye, this then means that the man is stabbing an eyeball. The ketchup dripping onto the plate may represent splattering of blood.
We can see an action of someone typing their shoelaces. However this can be seen as the man strangling someone. We can see that through the excess amount of strength that is put into a simple action of tying a shoelace.
This scene shows the man simply putting on his shirt. But we can identify this as him trying to suffocate someone.
