Abstract

Apparatus and method for extracting from a moving image a scene in which an intended person appears by simple operations are provided. A moving image editing apparatus identifies a person as an extraction target based on an instruction of a user, tracks a face of the extraction target to thereby select a scene in which the extraction target appears in a moving image, and extracts a partial moving image containing the selected scene from the moving image.
