Composition Techniques

Composition Techniques are what makes a video go from good to great. The four main types are rule of thirds, leading lines, framing, and unusual angles. When a person takes a picture, the subject is almost always in the center. That can get boring, so we use rule of thirds. It is where you place the subject out to the side, so that it isn't smack dab in the middle. Leading lines in a photo draw the eyes of the viewer to the subject. Often these kinds of shots interest the viewer. When you use framing, you take the subject and use the natural surroundings to frame the subject. Such as trees, or a wall and ceiling. Often people use the same old "take a picture holding the camera level to your shoulders" method. But this can get boring. To make a shot better, you could get low and shoot up at the subject, or get high above it and shoot down. These four simple techniques could make your shots way more interesting to the viewers.
