VIDEO IMAGE EDITING APPARATUS

摘要

In order to address the problem of checking and viewing a large amount or number of still images or moving images in a short amount of time without requiring much effort, the present invention provides a video image editing apparatus (100) provided with: a scene information generation unit (102) which divides an image data group including moving images into one or more scenes as well as generates scene information representing the characteristics for each scene-unit; and a digest moving image generation unit (103) which generates a digest moving image on the basis of the scene information. The digest moving image generation unit (103) determines whether or not to use each scene when generating the digest moving image and whether or not to place a plurality of scenes in the same frame, and determines a spatial placement pattern for the scenes when placing a plurality of scenes within the same frame.
