The image is divided into 9 equal segments by 2 vertical and 2 horizontal lines. You should position the most important elements in your scene along these lines, or at the points where they intersect. This will add balance and interest to your in-game-photo.

Example

  • In this shot we clearly want to show who is in the lead. Using the rule of thirds, the track begins in the upper left corner and ends in the lower right. That way you have a diagonal composition showing direction with motion blur, a sense of speed and depth of field shows exactly what the focus is on, attracting the attention of the eye on that.
