The Rule Of Thirds







The rule of thirds states that an image can be divided into nine equal parts by two equally-spaced horizontal lines and two equally-spaced vertical lines. The four points formed by the intersections of these lines can be used to align features in a photographRule of Thirds also brings energy and complete composition to a photo and is one of the first lessons a photographer learns. I've taken a small video using the rule of thirds and how it can be used to convey different perspectives. As you can see in the video, in the first few seconds the sky is the main the focus as it is within two thirds of the shot. However the last few seconds the floor becomes the main focus as its within the bottom two thirds of the shot. This is just a basic video vaguely using the rule of thirds.
