Rule Of 3rd's

When movies were first coming to fruition, filmmakers realized that the same rules of other art forms could be transferred over to film to make different shots more appealing to the eye. This is where the Rule Of 3rd's was created. Filmmakers found out by splitting the frame into nine equal boxes and lining up their subjects with the intersections of the lines, they could make their shot look better to the viewer. The Rule Of 3rd's has become such a widespread rule with artists that most cameras now have a feature to show the nine equal boxes to correctly line up the subject of the shot. On certain occasions however, this rule can be broken if needed. When braking the Rule Of 3rd's, it can make the audience feel uneasy or uncomfortable when watching.  Filmmakers use The Rule Of 3rd's to add more attention to the subject of the scene. With a little creativity, the Rule Of 3rd's cam be used to better an entire scene.
