Now we are going to talk about what the main four Composition Techniques. The main four are Rule of Thirds, Framing, Unusual Angles, and Leading Lines. First, Rule of Thirds is basically splitting your image into nine different sections. To me Rule of Thirds reminds me of drawing a Tic-Tac-Toe game across your screen. When using rule of thirds you never center the subject. It is either on the left or right of the screen, or in the upper or lower section of the screen. These are called Upper Thirds and Lower Thirds. Now, We re going to talk about Framing. Framing is Usually used to draw more attention to your subject. Framing shows more layers and adds context to your photos and videos. Sometimes what the viewers can not see is what draws them into the subject. Next, We are going to talk about Unusual Angles. They are huge attention getters. Unusual Angles add crypticness or mysteriousness to your photos. They are more interesting to the eye. Unusual Angles are going to different places and taking weird angles. Going down on the ground taking pictures of a crowd. Going up in a tree pointing down on a crowd. Unusual Angles are a definite must use. Finally Leading Lines, This is just a technique used to add interest and coolness to your photo/videos. Leading lines will take your eyes and direct them straight to your topic. All of these composition techniques will make you pictures and or videos fantastic!
