You could try recreating a scene from a film or tv program. There are some tutorials here at renderosity that you could have a look at and at daz etc.

If you don't have any ideas, try setting yourself a project. It could be a movie scene, like xantor said, or maybe an album or book cover, a magazine page, some old snapshots you have - whatever grabs your fancy. But to start off, keep it fairly simple. The point of starting a project is to finish it, so if it's something too wild, you'll probably give up in disgust. The other point is to give yourself a goal, and long the way, to learn things. Almost certainly, you won't know how to do everything you need to recreate a scene. So, get as far as you can, then come here and ask. Another thing you should do is break it down into sections. Deal with people, props, posing, lighting and cameras all separately. Add your figures and clothes, then the props, then start posing and positioning. After that, add your light, then sart looking at the whole scene with different cameras, focal lengths and POVs. mac

BTW, it doesn't need to be a complex scene with 20 figures. Here's an old pic of mine which could make an interesting render. One figure, no clothes. What could be simpler? mac

Hey good luck :) ...... I often suffer from the same thing, I believe it's called "creative block".
