Video Editing Worksheet: Rule of Thirds and Lighting

Animation and design lesson 18: Rule of thirds and lighting · Set 248 · 40 questions

Creator's tip (Thirds and light): Thirds lines: width ÷ 3 and 2 × (width ÷ 3); the same for the height. 9 boxes, 4 crossing points. Good light falls on the face from the front; a bright window behind makes a silhouette. Three-point lighting: key light, fill light, back light.
