Abstract

An electronic apparatus is provided, which includes a housing, a touchscreen display, a wireless communication circuit, a processor operatively connected to the touchscreen display and the wireless communication circuit, and a memory operatively connected to the processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, instruct the processor to receive an input to select a first animated image object, via the touchscreen display, to play a first animation of the first animated image object on the touchscreen display at least once, to receive a drawing input overlapping with the first animated image object, via the touchscreen display on which the first animation is played, and to cause a third animated image object, which is obtained by composing a second animation of a second animated image object by the drawing input with the first animation, to be generated. The third animated image object includes a plurality of image frames obtained by synchronizing the first animation and the second animation based on a time point when the drawing input is entered.
