More and more it strikes me that organization is a key component to greatness, even in the arts. Perhaps especially in the arts where the majority of practitioners are reclusive, egomaniacal or flighty.
Talent is comparably easy to find. As are willing parties. The tough part is the meticulous organization that is so well thought out that it is transparent. No one should ever feel the stricture of the planning other than the way in which time spent is uncommonly productive and always moving forward.
Often the talent and human assets of a production are left to their own devices, or consulting is done on the spot to decide which direction to take given the circumstances. This is a waste of time and resources.
Organization and planning should be done ahead of time with significant thought given to all potential problems. This will make the best use of everyone's time. There is no better way to keep morale high and loyalty strong.
