I believe that intellect and creativity go hand in hand. Creativity for me is the ability to express your ideas in a unique fashion. But to be able to do this well one must be intellectually able to understand the basic methods and ways of expressing this. In photography for me having the creativity to think of a composition is the first step. Having the intellect to compose that shot, and the intellect to properly take the photo are all-necessary to get a good photo. Having the creativity to think of unique ways enhancing the photo is necessary when editing it, but having the intellect to do the editing is necessary.
I also apply this in my field of study. As a Technical director in the theater I am charged with the responsibility to take a designer’s ideas about a set and they’re drawling and engineer them and build them and make it a reality on stage.
Having the intellect to engineer strictly sound scenery is necessary to be safe and successful at your task. But creativity is also extremely important this is because there is not just one way to engineer it to work. And to achieve unusual designs one must be able to creatively think of new ways to engineer and implement the designs. With out creativity then this would not be an art form. Because my field is truly I hybrid of these ideas, it makes it there by necessary to posses them both. And with out them I can fail at my job. That is why these traits are extremely important traits for a artist to have
