Is the picture copyrighted? Who generally owns the copyright of pictures? Pictures are also copyrighted, and this copyright is actually the copyright stipulated by China's laws. When pictures are created, they automatically acquire copyright, which is also protected by China's laws. But many times, the picture will be further processed, and at this time, the copyright ownership of the picture may be uncertain. Is the picture copyrighted? Who generally owns the copyright of pictures? Personal rights in copyright include the right to publish, the right to sign, the right to modify and the right to protect the integrity of works. (1) The right to publish is the right to decide whether a work is made public, such as publishing a photographic work in a photography magazine. (2) The right of authorship refers to the author's right to sign a work, and the copyright owner shows his identity by exercising the right of authorship: of course, the author can also sign his own stage name or pen name, or choose not to sign voluntarily under certain conditions. (3) The right to modify refers to the right to modify or authorize others to modify a work, such as the photographer appropriately cutting his own photos. It is generally believed that photo editing is to repair the scratches of submitted pictures and fine-tune the color and brightness. And the need to moderately crop pictures for typesetting. Does not constitute an infringement of the right to modify the work. (4) The right to protect the integrity of a work is the right to protect the work from distortion and tampering. As far as the picture is concerned, without the authorization of the author, it is not allowed to cut or deform the picture, add or delete the image in the picture, change the color of the picture, etc. The property rights in the copyright of picture works are mainly the right to use and the right to receive remuneration. The right to use mainly means that the author or copyright owner can use the picture by copying, distributing, renting, exhibiting, playing, adapting and spreading on the Internet. The right to remuneration means that the copyright owner of a picture uses the picture in various ways to obtain material and economic returns. All the above rights are recognized by China's copyright law, but the copyright law does not stipulate the right to investigate another right in property rights. In fact, the right of renewal is of great significance to the copyright owner of the picture. Let's briefly introduce the renewal right. The right of recourse is one of the property rights of the copyright owner. Its basic meaning means that the copyright owner of artistic works, especially photography and art works, has the right to deduct a certain percentage from the value-added part of the property after each sale of the original works. That is to say, after the original copyrighted work is sold, if the original purchaser resells it to others and gets more money than paid at the time of purchase, the original author of the work has the right to extract a certain proportion from the value-added part of the work. No matter how many times the work is resold and who gets it, as long as the price is higher than the purchase price, the original author has the right to take part of it. The system of inheritance right was first established by France, and it is also stipulated in article 14 (3) of Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works. China acceded to the Convention from 1992 to 12. So far, China's copyright law has not made any provisions on the right of renewal. With the continuous development of China's photo collection market and auction market, and the continuous internationalization of China's photo market, China should stipulate the right of photo recourse. In this process, photographers and photography agents, especially the relevant photography industry organizations and photography industry organizations, should actively make suggestions and suggestions to the country through corresponding channels, and strive to establish the right to renew their works in China as soon as possible. Article 1 1 of China's Copyright Law stipulates that copyright belongs to the author, except as otherwise provided in this Law. The citizen who creates a work is the author. Presided over by a legal person or other organization. A work created on behalf of a legal person or other organization and in the charge of the legal person or other organization shall be regarded as the author. If there is no proof to the contrary, the signed citizen, legal person or other organization shall be the author. In addition, articles 12 to 19 of the law clearly classify and explain various situations of copyright ownership. Is the picture copyrighted? Who generally owns the copyright of pictures?
