会议口译的知识产权问题

  在规划会议活动时有一个重要问题常常被忽视,那就是对同声传译进行录音、网上直播等所涉及的版权问题。

  当你考虑以下问题的时候:会议是否需要录音?要录制哪些场次?同传是否也要录,是否要将口译员的声音录进去?录制内容是作为内部使用,还是做网上直播或录播?需要哪些音视频设备?谁来提供?

  就涉及到会议口译的知识产权问题了。

  会议口译员权益受国际法保护。对会议做网络直播需事先征得同传译员同意。

  对同传进行录音需要事先征得口译员的同意

  会议口译员的现场翻译受到国际法律保护。1886年通过的《伯尔尼公约》,对文学及艺术作品作者的权益提供了保护。翻译作品无论是文字、声音、音视频还是其它类似形式的,均作为原创作品受到版权保护,而译者作为作者同样受到公约的保护。根据《伯尔尼公约》,会议口译员的现场同传属于翻译作品,而身为作者,同传译员则享有《公约》所规定的专有权利。

  简而言之,绝不可以在口译员不知情或不同意的情况下,对其进行录音。这也是为了保护口译员不被第三方起诉。假如录音的主要使用者不是会议主办方,则录音前还需要得到会议组织方的授权,并征得发言人的同意。

  国际会议口译员协会(AIIC)针对会议中录制口译内容需遵守的条件 提供了操作性指导。一般而言,会议口译服务合同中需包含版权转让条款及详细许可费用的规定。

  Memorandum concerning the use of recordings of interpretation at conferences

  1. The present memorandum, drafted by the International Association of Conference Interpreters, is based on the provisions of international copyright agreements administered by WIPO and UNESCO and contains practical information on the conditions governing the use of recordings made of interpretation at conferences.

  Warning

  2. Conference interpretation is an oral intellectual exercise, quite distinct from drafting a written text. Any attempt to put the content of recording of conference interpretation into written form, without considerable preliminary editing, can only yield questionable results.There is no known instance of spoken language being completely transferable into acceptable written form. It is therefore recommended that professional minute writers or translators be used to do the editing required.

  3 . Stenotypists, a related profession, trained to prepare word-for-word versions of conference proceedings are also available.

  Introduction

  4. The protection of intellectual and creative works and their use by third parties, are subject to national legislation, bilateral agreements and international agreements, in particular the International Copyright Convention and the Berne Convention for the Protection of Artistic and Literary Works.

  5. The performance of conference interpreters is protected under international law. The Berne Convention provides protection for the interests of authors; translations are protected as original works and translators are protected as authors. When fixed in material form, of any nature whatsoever (printed, sound or audiovisual recording, records, discs, magnetic tapes, videograms, slides, films, wire, cable, transparencies, photocopies, microcards, or any similar method) the performance of the conference interpreter becomes a translation within the meaning of the Berne Convention and the exclusive rights foreseen in the Convention apply to the author.

  6. The purpose of the rules governing copyright is the protection of the legitimate rights of the author. Thus, no one may publish the work of an author, nor exploit it in any other way without the preliminary consent of the author: the exclusive right to grant such authorization belongs solely to the author, i.e. the interpreter.

  Finally, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (10 December 1948) recognises in principle the protection of the moral and material rights of authors in relation to their works.

  Contract for assignment of copyright

  7. The normal method of assignment of copyright covers two stages: the conclusion of a contract and the implementation of its provisions.

  A. Conclusion of a contract

  8. The assignment of copyright must be made in writing. The organiser, the person responsible for the conference, or any third party who may wish to record interpretation in the course of a meeting, must therefore apply for permission at the time the very first contacts are made with the interpreters concerned. NO INTERPRETER MAY BE RECORDED WITHOUT HIS/HER KNOWLEDGE AND WITHOUT HIS/HER CONSENT.

  The authorization of third parties may be necessary, inter alia the organiser of the conference (if he is not the principal user of the recording) and that of the original speakers at the meeting. This consent is necessary in order to protect the interpreter against any proceedings taken by a third party.

  9. The contract for the use of a recording of conference interpretation shall be drafted in as precise, clear and unequivocal terms as possible. It must state the type of use (commercial or non-commercial) foreseen for the recording and the technical method(s) of dissemination of the work (printing, cassettes, video-cassettes, broadcasting, television etc.). Any use not specifically provided for in the contract remains the property of the author.

  10. An individual contract must be established for each interpreter involved in an assignment of rights, i.e. for all interpreters working in the language(s) being recorded, including any interpreters acting as relay-point "pivot". Each contract shall be signed by both parties.

  11. The contract shall also contain details of the scope of application in time and space, the method and amount of payment, the jurisdiction applicable and the technical method provided to ensure quality of recording. Furthermore, a recording of the original version of speeches must be foreseen as well as the recording of the interpretation in the version heard through their headphones by the audience.

  B. Implementation of the contract

  12. Apart from the conditions agreed to in the contract which must be complied with and implemented, there are other obligations incumbent upon the assignee, even if they are not provided for in the contract: if the interpreter so wishes, his name shall be published by the user of the recording, and any distortion or alteration to the quality of the recording which could be harmful to the honour or reputation of the interpreter must be avoided.

  The user shall guarantee payment to the interpreter of the fee agreed to in the contract. Information must be made available to allow the interpreter, in cases of pro rata terms of remuneration, to check the ratio between payment(s) received and the actual use of the work.

  Practical advice

  13. The organiser, the person responsible for the conference or any third party user must ensure by notices posted in the meeting rooms and by publication in the programme that no recording(s) other than those authorized in writing in the contract are made. With the specific exception of press conferences, all tape recorders used by individuals wishing to make secret or pirated recordings must be disconnected.

  Should unauthorized sound or audiovisual versions (tapes, cassettes, videograms, discs, slides, films, wire, cable, transparencies etc.) or pirated texts (photocopies, printed, microcards, microfiches, print-outs etc.) be sold, the interpreters will hold the signatory of the contract responsible for enforcing their rights.

  Remuneration

  14. Remuneration is negotiated freely between the organiser of the conference and the interpreters.

  Model Contracts

  15. A model contract to cover the assignment of copyright in connection with the recording(s) of conference interpretation is attached. It is intended to facilitate the contractual relationship between the interpreter and the organiser, the person responsible for the conference or any third party assignee.
