Thanks for your insightful comments. This example is just a mock-up of how I begin to experiment with designing the scene I have in mind. It is not lit, cropped, or rendered yet. And no post-work has been done because I haven't decided upon a final composition. All I meant to illustrate is how I use techniques like the Rule of Thirds in a visual way before I start putting everything together inside Poser.  Some people might do this inside their head before they begin a scene, or sketch it out on paper, I like doing it in Photoshop.

I would imagine you work out your scenes with story-boards before you start working on your animations, that's mainly what I'm doing here. You're right in that the moon does dominate the scene and I'll likely try a number of different things before I get to doing the final version.

I should have been more clear in pointing out that this is intended to be a mock-up of a work-in-progress and not a completed project.

By the way . . .

Sometimes I use the backgrounds from Divine Poser inside Photoshop when I'm figuring out how to compose a scene. I load all the elements of the scene as individual layers in Photoshop so I can shift things around, and figure out how best to set up the picture. Then I load one of the templates and adjust the opacity, which allows me place each element of the scene with a great degree of precision before I start working on the final version.

This is a rough work-up I'm working on now which illustrates another way you can use these templates.

Hi, and thanks for looking and leaving comments. If you'd like to try out the "Rule of Thirds" template be sure to check out my freestuff section, it's a handy little tool.
