A18. Avoiding the Cliche in a High School Art Project

-
What does the word cliche mean? Cliche means something that is overused or is not original. What are the nine steps for avoiding the cliche in an art project?

Nature tends to catch my attention. Other than a class assignment, what is your point in the images that you take?  What kinds of things are happening when you think “that would make a great image?” I really like to see how I can portray an image/person through my shoots. What emotions do your most easily connect with? Sad/anxious Why is the technical part of photography important? Because you need to know your camera in order to be at the best of your abilities. How far along do you feel that you are in understanding the technical aspects of photography? Pretty far along. Do you believe that creativity can be learned?
