I recently learned about い- adjective and な- adjective. However, I'm not so sure how to form the negative form.
For example, For い-adjective If an interesting movie is: おもしろい映画 Then is the negative form "面白くない映画"?
For な-adjective If a beautiful picture is: きれいな写真 Then how do you say not a beautiful picture?

For い-adjective If an interesting movie is: おもしろい映画 Then is the negative form "面白くない映画"(make sense)
For な-adjective If a beautiful picture is: きれいな写真 Then how do you say not a beautiful picture?(きれいではない写真(it makes sense grammatically but not sound natural)
"美しい写真" "美しくない写真" sound more natural in this example.

When the adjective is used not before a noun, but as a predicate of a sentence:
あの映画はおもしろいです That movie is interesting. あの映画はおもしろくないです。That movie is not interesting.
この写真はきれいです。This picture is beautiful. この写真はきれいではないです。or きれいじゃないです。This picture is not beautiful.
