The rule of thirds is a technique used in visual arts to where two equally spaced vertical and horizontal lines are placed over a picture dividing the image into 9 equal parts forming a net like the one on the left. The four intersections formed by the lines crossing, known as 'hotspots' can be lined up with features in a photograph or a film to create interesting compositions that will create a feeling of tension and energy and form a more interesting composition that looks more professional.
Below is a short clip explaining the Rule of Thirds....
If you notice how the Rule of Thirds has been used here by having the two characters in the image are placed directly under the two vertical lines, also the two 'hotspots' also line up with their faces.
