Positioning of subject-rule of third

These are one of the most useful techniques within taking images/shots for photography for the music magazine. The rule of thirds divide your image using two horizontal and vertical lines to show where the points meet. It shows the best composition of where is the image/photo is placed. The rule of thirds can be used in the same subject but give different effect depending on what type of shot it is. Also, in landscape the horizontal lines are very common.Another part of the rule of third is that it could provide an "anchor" which is a natural focus for the point of the scene that the photo is taken. Even nature photography has a clear focus point in the image. Most of the focus of the image is off centre. Rule of third is usually a starting point within any composition.

The photography room/studio for taking shots for music magazine

The photography studio/room. The light has a dial on them to turn/reduce the brightness. One of the lights are seen as the main light, and if you reduce the brightness on that one and not on the other light it will create/show a shadow effect. The n icon camera has to be taken the image(the image should not be taken at the back-so we should make sure that the images are not taken at the back of the set as this would create a grey effect and not show good quality of the image. There is the setup of 3d lighting, by having three lights(the main light,the supporting light and the light at the back-which is a drop light which can create an emphasis of shadow and contrasting effect to the images/shots. There would be two set ups(one of them which would be white and the other one would be black. For example, one of the lights(the main light) could be beamed while the other light is being lit up which will create a reflector between the images. For the images/shots of which i would be taking for the front cover it would be taken portrait instead of landscape as i want the image to be more of a close up for the music magazine.
