'True Blood' - Making of the Title Sequence

I have a confession to make, over the last few days I started and caught myself up with HBO's True Blood.  This is not a review of the show but I do have to say that my initial expectations were far exceeded.  It really is a wonderful show with a fantastic plot. 

What I wanted to share with you is this making of the opening title sequence.  Anyone who has seen the show knows it's a pretty intense opening.  Very dark, great music...really sets the tone.

FYI...this is probably considered NSFW...

A truly hand-made sequence for one of the most watched dramatic series in HBO's history. The final edit contains over 65 shots comprised of original documentary, studio, tabletop photography and found footage. 6 separate shoots took place in Louisiana, Seattle, Chicago on 7 different still, film, and video cameras. 3 new babies were born at DK between award and delivery. No divorces. 1 Bolex passed peacefully in the night.

And for those of you who haven't seen the actual opening sequence...

Really interesting. I've loved the opening for Dexter since I first saw it. This one is easily as good, but they are so opposite in vision even though both are dark tales. Love the doc, thanks! I may have to catch up with Tru Blood on demand.

Very glad that you have discovered True Blood. It is one hell of a brutal show but oh so good.
