Abstract
De entre las formas creativas cuya expresión es digna de tutela por derechos de autor, la complejidad que caracteriza a las obras audiovisuales, tanto en su gestación como en su explotación la diferencia de la mayoría de creaciones artísticas. Una complejidad de la que surgen intereses encontrados que hacen recomendable la instauración de un régimen específico que armonice éstos y para cuya aplicación resulta determinante el concepto de obra que se debe sujetar al mismo. La definición dada por el legislador español sobre lo que se ha de entender por “obra audiovisual”, no obstante las repercusiones, no resulta un concepto de sencilla ni pacífica interpretación. En el presente artículo procederemos al análisis detallado de los distintos extremos requeridos por la ley para la conformación de la obra audiovisual como objeto de protección, prestando especial atención a aquéllos cuya interpretación resulta más problemática.
Among the creative forms whose expression is worthy of protection by copyright, the complexity that characterizes audiovisual works, both in their gestation and in their exploitation, make them different from the majority of artistic creations. This complexity gives rise to conflicting interests that make it advisable to establish a specific regime to harmonize these and for whose application the concept of the work to be subject to is decisive. The definition given by the Spanish legislator on what is meant by "audiovisual work", notwithstanding the repercussions, is not a simple or peaceful interpretation. In the present paper we will proceed to a detailed analysis of the different points required by the law for the conformation of the audiovisual work as object of protection, paying special attention to those whose interpretation is more problematic.
