The rule of thirds is a compositional rule where a steady shot is divided into nine equal parts by two equally-spaced horizontal lines and two equally-spaced vertical lines. The main focus in the shot should be placed along these lines. By using the rule and aligning a subject with these points creates more tension, energy and interest in the composition than simply centering the subject would.

When filming people, it is common to line the body up with a vertical line, and having the person's eyes in line with a horizontal one. If filming a moving subject, the same pattern is often followed, with the majority of the extra room being in front of the person.
