This paper presents the first results of the research “The audiovisual author in the beginning of the 21st century: renaissance or funeral?”, funded by CAPES, under post-doctoral work at the Sorbonne-Nouvelle, Paris 3, with the guidance of Professor Laurent Creton, between January and March 2010. The text is divided into three sections: a summary of the origins of written literature, photography and film; observations on the corpus of work; the authorship in low-budget films. In the last section is the idea that in the Brazilian and French films, made with small costs, between 2004 and 2009, the director establishes his own through a steady accumulation of functions other direction. Also covered is the possibility that this form of exercise (and think) the authorship is present in other types of movies, thus giving the first steps necessary revision of the concept of authorship in contemporary cinema in general.
