Rule of Thirds is a concept in video and film production in which the frame is divided into into nine imaginary sections, shown below. This creates reference points which act as guides for framing the image.
Points (or lines) of interest should occur at 1/3 or 2/3 of the way up (or across) the frame, rather than in the centre. Like many rules of framing, this is not always necessary but it is one of those rules you should understand well.
In most "people shots", the main line of interest is the line going through the eyes. In this shot, the eyes are placed approximately 1/3 of the way down the frame.

We experimented with the camera using rule of thirds. Here are our results.
This is a picture without the rule of thirds.
This is a picture with the rule of thirds based on the top left box.
This is a picture with rule of thirds based on the top right box.
In conclusion from this activity, we will be mainly considering the top corners boxes of rule of thirds.
