Rule of thirds

Rule of thirds

The Rule of thirds is when you use vertical and horizontal lines to line up an image correctly so it looks professional and neat.  The image is split up into 9 boxes which shows how a subject is placed in an image. It can be used both portrait and landscape. A humans eye has been proved that it won't automatically look in the centre so that means that the main part of an image doesn't always have to be in the centre instead it an just be in the eye line of the photo. This will create a image which will look appealing to people. 

An example of this is this image. 

As you can see, the lines make the image look even and so photographers can use these lines to improve images. It shows the different subjects in the image and in this image, the person is on the line and so people will look at the person in eye line.

The Brook logo school magazine ideas

These are some of my ideas for some logo designs for my school magazine. I have made them different to each other so there is a mix of different logos I could use for my school magazine.

This is my mock up front cover for my school magazine 'The Brook'. I have made the masthead big and exciting as it will draw more people in to reading the magazine. I also included a banner at the bottom which is easy for people to read and people will be interested on how to revise properly. I made the headline very big as well as it is the most important section of the magazine. The pug I used will also draw more people in as the prize is an expensive prize and many people will want to get there hands on a Macbook Pro. I included the plantsbrook logo to make the magazine look more professional. I added another headline about ofsted as adults and parents will be interested to see how the school is getting on.

School Magazine main image idea

The main image of the magazine will be a medium shot camera angle either being a school boy or school girl. The person in the photo will either being in school clothes or in normal clothes if it is a sixth former. The person will be looking smarter and be looking cheerful. The magazine will look bright and interesting to make it stand out to people who are looking to by a magazine like this.
