Abstract
An animation creating device creates composite animation, in which an object has been added to a pre-described animation image that includes a motion object, the animation creating device including: an additional object selecting section (), which selects an additional object; a motion animation creating section (), which generates motion animation, in which the motion object moves according to the selected additional object, using the pre-described animation image; and an animation composite section (), which combines the motion animation with an animation image of the additional object. This provides an animation creating method and an animation creating device with a capability to create composite animation with simple operations and in a short period of time. An animation creating program, which is provided to execute the animation creating method on a computer, is recorded in a computer-readable recording medium.
