work with people
I say that you need to work with the best people you can. i think there are other things that go hand in hand with good work that are more in the lines with making a good soup and being creative is only one aspect of what is needed.
So, I am not sure that you should scour the earth looking for those you feel are creative and artistic. Maybe it will be better if it is more like keeping a black book of those you meet along your path that you would like to work with and when you get a chance to work with them make it happen.
And, what I mean by "... making a good soup" is, I do believe that there is a solid truth in "good chemistry". I believe that when you put the right people together you get the great movies. I think creative greats who respect each others talents and fuel the desires and fires of creative excellence within each other will achieve the best works. So, i do believe you want to find these people to work with on your projects but I don't think you will always have a choice and you need to learn to navigate even when working with horidly rigid dogmatic individuals that don't see the light.
