Symmetry
Rule of 3
Fade in / out
Symmetry
- occurs when objects or subjects are arranged symmetrically, as if they were mirrored.
- creates a sense of organization and order.
Rule of 3
- the shot has imaginary lines (3,6,9..) either vertical, horizontal, canted/ oblique.

- a picture appears (fades in) or disappears (fades out) progressively.
- can be combined : a frame fades out while another fades in.
