Today’s essential question: How can I use the rule of thirds and visual hierarchy to create a prominent focal point in my cereal box design?
Rule of Thirds
To apply the rule of thirds, break an image down into thirds (both horizontally and vertically) so that you have 9 parts. Place points of interest in the intersections or along the lines to create a more balanced and visually interesting composition. Studies have shown that people’s eyes usually go to one of the intersection points rather than the center of the design. When we use the rule of thirds, we make the way people naturally view images work for us rather than against us.
