Rule of Thirds

While Filming I tried to get my shots to fit with the rule of thirds so that they looked more professional. The rule of thirds make shots and pictures easy on the eye and draw your eyes to certain spots. It can also be used to highlight certain areas of an image or shot.

This photo shows how the rule of thirds works and gives an example of how effective it is.



This shot uses the rule of thirds to highlight Martin's face when he is speaking. The walkie talkie is also central to the image to convey how the story revolves around it and the radio host.



This shot also uses the rule of thirds to highlight Martin's face and once again the mic is in the centre. I tried to make it so that the top right point of the rule of thirds was near Martin's eye as that is a key feature of a face.
