the life of a necklace

Most of this video falls on the lines it should when considering the rule of thirds, the subject, the necklace, is for the most part where it needs to be. However in the final 3 frames, it could have been placed better

• Pan- moving only the camera to scan the set horizontally, while the dolly and tripod remain stationary.
• Zoom- to come closer or further away from your main focus.
• Dolly- physically moving the camera, its tripod, and dolly perpendicularly toward or away from the set.

LIGHTS

The rule of thirds is the way that someone lines up a shot with tha camera. Its like puting an elongated tic-tac-toe board over the frame and using the lines to posistion the image or video and angle of the subject.

 
 
as seen in the picture above, one of the two images has a great shot, the other, not so much. The picture of the boy is ok, but it lacks focus, the subject is properly placed however, the eyes are where the top right intersection of the lines would be, but the size isnt right. The picture of the flower on the bottom is the better excample of the rule of thirds, the flower falls under the perfect placement if the grid were to be placed over the picture and the angle is perfect for the shot type.
