28. 2. 2024 The word "author" automatically creates a kind of aura of uniqueness around itself. However, this romantic notion is not so relevant today - an author is not just some guru who creates a work of art that future generations will learn about through textbooks. Today, virtually anyone can be an author. This is especially evident in the world of television advertising, where big names are the desired but rarer exception. Of course, the so-called auteurs offer a databank of examples of good practice, and it is appropriate to return to them, but it is not appropriate to think that the creative team of an advertising agency performs a diametrically different activity. So what is it really like with authorship and auteurism in TV advertising? How do you turn an ad into a work of authorship? In terms of craft authorship, television advertising is a discipline similar to film or television series. It differs, of course, in the subject matter and the purpose for which it is created, but the creator must go through a de facto comparable process. As a result, a television advertisement communicates its main message in the same way as any other work. And, logically, there are three main channels of communication.
