摘　　要：影视作品人物角色综合了动漫和文学作品人物角色的特征,既有从视觉层面呈现的形象,又有让观众想象的空间。影视角色能否独立于作品受到版权保护成为实践中亟需解决的问题。针对不同类型的影视角色采用不同的版权保护判定方法才有可能满足为影视作品提供版权保护和鼓励后续创作的需求。此外,影视角色既包含了剧本对角色的设定,又包含了演员自身形象和表演,调和影视作品版权人和演员之间对自己权利行使的冲突也成为了影视作品版权保护的应有之义。由于美国的娱乐产业一直走在各国前沿,其典型的与人物角色有关的版权侵权案较多,在分析美国判例的基础上,探讨影视角色版权保护的判定方法以及缓和角色扮演者与影视作品版权人之间权益冲突的途径。Audiovisual characters combine features of cartoon and literary characters. They are presented visually and leave room for audience to imagine. Whether audiovisual characters can be independently protected by copyright law aside from the work as a whole becomes a problem in practice. Different methods for determining copyright protection should apply to different types of audiovisual characters so as to satisfy the needs of providing copyright protection for audiovisual works and encouraging subsequent creation. Additionally,audiovisual characters are set up by scripts but performed by actors. It is important to reconcile the conflict of interests between actors and copyright holders of audiovisual works. Since the entertainment industry in the United States has been at the forefront among various countries and the courts have developed typical methods for determining copyright protection of audiovisual characters,this article will discuss copyright protection methods that apply to audiovisual characters and solution of the conflict between actors and copyright holders based on the United States cases.
