Audio Visual Performers’ Rights: Unravelling Legal and Economic Complexities in India and Australia
Forging Pathways in Times of Geopolitical and Geoeconomic Upheaval Workshop (Sydney, Australia, 23/11/2023–24/11/2023)

Abstract
The current process of exploiting copyrighted works, which involves multiple rights and rightsholders, has received significant criticism owing to its complex nature. Producers, composers, and publishers often possess distinct or overlapping rights, which further complicates this matter. Consequently, any proposal to recognise a performer’s performance as a distinct property right within copyright law is often met with criticism from copyright owners, scholars, and policy experts. This paper includes a section of the doctoral thesis that examines the existing literature on legal and economic policy concerns surrounding the extension of performers’ rights in copyright law. The conclusion synthesises the analysis, emphasising the importance of understanding the implications of granting performers a separate property right and the potential impact of implementing the Beijing Treaty on audiovisual performances (2012) in Australia and India.
