But what rights do writers, screenwriters, directors, photographers, songwriters and composers enjoy?

Legal analysis:

1. According to the principle that creation generates copyright, first of all, it should be admitted that a film work or a work created by a method similar to filming is created by writers such as screenwriters, directors, photographers, lyricists and composers.

2. Considering the huge investment of the producer and the commercial operation of the film works, theoretically, the copyright of the film works is legally transferred to the producer. But writers such as screenwriters, directors, photographers, lyricists and composers still enjoy the right of authorship.

Legal basis:

Article 12 of the Copyright Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) * * * The copyright of a work produced by adapting, translating, annotating and arranging an existing work shall be enjoyed by the person who adapted, translated, annotated and arranged it, but the exercise of copyright shall not infringe the copyright of the original work.
