An exemplary embodiment provides an information processing program. The information processing program includes image obtaining instructions, search target detection instructions, shape recognition instructions, event occurrence instructions, virtual image generation instructions, and display control instructions. The search target detection instructions cause a computer to detect a search target from an image of a subject obtained in accordance with the image obtaining instructions. The shape recognition instructions cause the computer to recognize a shape of the search target. The event occurrence instructions cause the computer to cause an event to occur in a virtual space in accordance with the shape of the search target. The virtual image generation instructions cause the computer to generate a virtual image by shooting the event that occurs in accordance with the event occurrence instructions with a virtual camera arranged in the virtual space.
