Authorship

Just right off the bat, I would say a definite example of authorship and not, would be the "One white one black" and the black and white piece with the two gray dogs. The one white one black piece, in my opinion, should not be considered and authored piece. It should be considered a documentary. The white dog in this case is the obvious dominant male. This attitude is standard for dominant males. This piece could be repeated with virtually any two litter mates. I've done, but not filmed, this with my dog and his brother. *Taken out of context, that last sentence could be misconstrued*
The piece with the two dogs following the tennis ball is an example of authorship, because there is direction.
I guess in all, I would consider direction and authorship together in this case.

Thank you for your time.
