Abstract

A video is generated from multi-aspect images. For each frame of the output video, a provisional video is created with provisional images which are used to designate a position of a target object on which to focus and to acquire a depth map showing a depth of the object, and which are reconstructed using default values from LFIs as the frames. Then, information designating coordinates of focal positions of the target object on the provisional video is acquired. A list creator acquires the depth value of the target object using a depth map created from the LFI of the current frame, and records this in a designation list after obtaining the reconstruction distance from the depth value. A corrector corrects the designation list. A main video creator creates and outputs a main video with reconstructed images focused at a focal length designated by the post-correction designation list as frames.
