Discuss on the Distinguishing Standard of Serial Images and Their Copyright Protection

Yanan Zhang

Abstract—Under the provisions of China's current copyright law, audiovisual works and video recordings as two separate objects with different degrees of protection. This article attempts to explain the ambiguity of the criteria for distinguishing the audiovisual works and video recordings in judicial practice and proposes the following solutions: when distinguishing audiovisual works and video recordings by the presence or absence of originality, serial images that faithfully record existing images should be excluded, and according to the dichotomy of image and content, the three links of visualization of process events, raw image shooting and editing production should be refined in the judgment criteria. Since it is difficult to make direct distinctions within audiovisual works, this paper converts them into distinctions of producers according to the different situations of claimants as an aid.

Index Terms—Audiovisual works, cinematographic and TV serial works, originality, producer, video recordings
