What is an artistic picture? an artistic picture is very simple. the creator is not the producer. the creator is not the star. the creator is the director, the person who realizes the picture, like a poet, like an artist. the creator of the picture is free to do whatever he wants, how he wants to do it. that is an artistic picture.
