    I’m looking to put together a video for a friend and I’d like to do it in a style similar to the opening sequence of Dexter. Anyone have suggestions on tutorials for editing that style? I’m trying to achieve that “jerky” look, for lack of a better term.

    Excluding the high frame-rate imagery, lighting requirements and the extreme close ups used in the sequence…

    You need a good EFP Camera Operator as well as probably someone who understands MOTION to use some of those ‘moves’ you talk about.

    If the editor understands matchmoving and tracking, you can make this happen!

    The key will be having a clear production brief and good consultation between the camera operator and the editor to make this work.
