1. RULE OF THIRD : Guideline For A Better Composition

2. The General Knowledge History
The term rule of thirds has been floating around our world since roughly the 1800′s when painting was a very popular form of art. The older term, called the golden mean, has been around for years, back when the Greeks roamed the earth and built extraordinary temples dedicated to their gods.

3. What Is RULE OF THIRD
The rule of thirds is one of the most basic composition guidelines in photography. The rule of thirds makes use of a natural tendency of the human eye to be more strongly drawn towards certain parts of an image.
Rule of third is actually about how to position your subject in the picture. Actually it's not even a rule, it's rather a guideline for making reasonably framed pictures.

4. What Is RULE OF THIRD
The rule of thirds is a compositional rule of thumb in visual arts such as painting, photography and design. The rule states that an image should be imagined as divided into nine equal parts by two equally-spaced horizontal lines and two equally-spaced vertical lines, and that important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or their intersections.
Proponents of the technique claim that aligning a subject with these points creates more tension, energy and interest in the composition than simply centering the subject would.

5. What Is RULE OF THIRD
Unique grid of lines arranged to divide your image into thirds.
Along one of these lines, or at the intersecting point of these lines you want to position your most important subjects in your drawing, photo, graphic, video, film, food, and any form of art.
This compositional rule is also commonly referred to as the rule of thirds grid, golden ratio, golden mean, or simply rule of thirds photography.

6. What Is RULE OF THIRD
Rule Of Thirds is popular amongst artists. It works like this:
Imaginary lines are drawn dividing the image into thirds both horizontally and vertically. You place important elements of your composition where these lines intersect.

10. The Purposes of ROT To Show Dynamic
To Show tension of the subject matter
To Show Room between your subject matter and surroundings
To Show Breath of Composition
To Show Balance in active way

17. Simple Way to Use R.O.T
Before you draw or snap the picture (Using your camera), imagine your picture area divided into thirds both horizontally and vertically. The intersections of these imaginary lines suggest four options for placing the center of interest for good composition. The option you select depends upon the subject and how you would like that subject to be presented.

18. Simple Way to Use R.O.T
By placing interesting components of your image at intersecting points, such as people, buildings, animals, or your main subject, you can make your image well balanced and help viewers naturally move through your image.
The rule is based off of a subconscious movement throughout artwork where a viewers eye pauses at one of the four intersecting corners longer than it would in other such areas such as the far edges.

19. Simple Way to Use R.O.T
As you’re choosing an image you would have done this in your mind through your viewfinder that you use to frame your shot.
With this grid in mind the ‘rule of thirds’ now identifies four important parts of the image that you should consider placing points of interest in.
Not only this – but it also gives you four ‘lines’ that are also useful positions for elements in your drawing.

20. Simple Way to Use R.O.T
The theory is that if you place points of interest in the intersections or along the lines that your subject matter becomes more balanced and will enable a viewer of the image to interact with it more naturally.
Studies have shown that when viewing images that people’s eyes usually go to one of the intersection points most naturally rather than the center of the shot – using the rule of thirds works with this natural way of viewing an image rather than working against it.

21. Simple Way to apply R.O.T
If you don’t know how to imagine the rule of third grid and intersection… by your own initiative, u have to create your own R.O.T viewfinder for drawing.
Simple – Use box board and wire and DIY
