Adapting a novel into a film and television work, causing copyright violation
It was a very common problem to adapt a novel into a film or television work and cause copyright infringement. When adapting a novel, if the content of the novel is adapted, deleted or changed without authorization, and the content of the novel is published as part of the film and television works, it will constitute copyright. The act of adapting a novel violates the author's copyright. Without the permission of the copyright owner, no individual or organization has the right to adapt or publish it. If the adapted novel was a well-known novel such as the Harry Potter series or Dream of the Red Chamber, then the adaptation was more likely to involve legal issues. Because these novels are so well-known, the copyright owners may think that the adaptation is an copyright violation even if it doesn't directly violate their copyright. In order to avoid copyright violation, the adaptation of the novel required the permission of the copyright owner or compliance with relevant laws and regulations during the adaptation process. When adapting a novel, you should respect the copyright of the original author and not make any unauthorized adaptation. At the same time, the author should also be aware that the act of adaptation may constitute copyright, so he should take a cautious attitude when adapting to avoid unnecessary legal problems.
