Abstract:
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein a moving image generation program executed by an information processing apparatus which performs an editing process, based on a predetermined operation input, for editing an initial image displayed by a display device, generates still image information through the editing process, and stores the still image information as moving image information, a computer of the information processing apparatus being caused perform functions of the moving image generation program comprising: previously storing information of the initial image in an image storage unit; displaying, via the display device, an unprocessed image which is a still image to be edited in the editing process and is associated with the information of the initial image stored in the image storage unit; performing the editing process including a shifting process for shifting the unprocessed image in a predetermined direction based on the predetermined operation input, and generating a processed image which is an image obtained through the editing process; calculating a shift amount, based on the predetermined operation input, in the shifting process; calculating difference data representing a difference between the processed image and an image obtained by shifting the unprocessed image by the calculated shift amount; and storing, in the image storage unit, the calculated shift amount and the calculated difference data so as to be associated with each other.
