Composition Rules

The Rule of Thirds

The rule of thirds starts by dividing the frame into thirds. The rule of thirds proposes that a

useful approximate starting point for any compositional grouping is to place major points of

interest in the scene on any of the four intersections of the interior lines.

It is a simple but effective rough guideline for any frame composition.

The rule of thirds has been used by artists for centuries

Head Room

The amount of space above the head. Too much headroom makes the figure seem to be lost in

the frame. Headroom is also wasted compositionally as it is often just sky or empty wall.

It adds no information to the shot and may draw the eye away from the central subject.

Composition Rules

Composition Rules

Nose Room (=Looking Room)

we rarely position the head in the exact middle of the frame, except when the actor is looking

more or less straight toward or away from the camera. Generally, the more the head is

turned to the side, the more noseroom is allowed.
