In the Russian Federation, a person who organized the creation of a complex object is not the author of such an object. Traditionally, civil law distinguishes a triumvirate of authors of a complex object on the example of one of its type - an audiovisual work. A production director, scriptwriter and composer who created music specially for this work are recognized as authors. However, the foreign legislation of some states has a different approach to this issue. In the article, on the example of such a participant as a producer, the author considers the problem of determining his legal status, since in the countries of the Anglo-American legal system a producer is considered to be the author of the movie. The article highlights that the person responsible for the organization of the process of creating such an object, in particular, the person who took the initiative and responsibility for the creation of the relevant object (not only financial contribution but also creative one), may be considered to be the author provided he makes a creative contribution to the creation of a complex object.
