22. Video Production Headroom Headroom refers to the distance between the top of the subject’s head and the top of the frame. How much headroom you should leave depends on how much of the frame is taken up by the subject. Too much headroom: The composition is nice, but our focus is on the background, not on the subject. Not enough headroom: The top of this person’s head is right against the top of the frame. Just right! The subject is framed so that they are the focus of this shot, but we still get a sense of scale.

23. Video Production Leadroom Well-composed shots leave space in the direction the subject is facing or moving. This space in front of the subject, whether the subject is moving or stationary, is called “lead room” and helps create a more open composition. Lead Room makes this composition more open and gives a sense of motion. This composition is not as dynamic and it seems like this plane has nowhere to go

35. Video Production The basic principle behind the rule of thirds is to imagine breaking an image down into thirds (both horizontally and vertically) so that you have 9 parts.

36. Video Production The idea is that an off-centre composition is more pleasing to the eye and looks more natural than one where the subject is placed right in the middle of the frame. It also encourages you to make creative use of negative space, the empty areas around your subject.
