Road to novelty

The very reason you jump into film making is because you don’t want to stick to clichés rather you want to change the rules of the game and break away from conventionality, creating new ways of portraying a mood which strikes a chord with the audience not because they have seen similar thing before rather they have never seen such a thing before. Does the road to learning novelty in cinema traverse through clichés?

There are many possible answers but the one which I can think of right now is here:

When you create a scene and put up your camera, your abilities in the past will drive you towards achieving the best possible angle. You won’t be able to achieve the right angle, the right distance and right height the very first time. It needs practice and experience. What you see in movies by great artists takes years of experience and learning, something which can only be achieved when you START SHOOTING and LEARN ON SET.
In order to learn as much as you can from every exercise, just ensure that before you are actually shooting, you have explored all the possible angles and know the effect each angle may create in the minds of the audience. Then only you will be able to TELL YOUR STORY. Additionally, this is important because you are telling a story with visuals and you want visuals to convey a certain thought or mood or drama. If you can’t tell the exact outcome of a particular shot, how can you evoke the desired emotion in the minds of the audience? Merely by dialogues?
