Abstract

The invention provides an image creation method and an image creation apparatus. An image capture apparatus 1 includes an original image acquisition unit 51, a facial image creation unit 52, a theme decision unit 53, a face part replacement unit 54, and an animation character image creation unit 55. The original image acquisition unit 51 acquires an original image as a target for processing. The facial image creation unit 52 creates a facial image based on a characteristic region of the original image. The theme decision unit 52 decides a theme. The facial image creation unit 52 changes the facial image based on the theme. The animation character image creation unit 55 creates a pose image corresponding to the facial image based on the theme. Furthermore, the animation character creation unit 55 composites a facial image changed by the face part replacement unit 54 with a pose image created by the animation character image creation unit 55 so as to create an animation character image.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2014-259356 for which it applied on December 22, 2014, and uses the whole content as a reference. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to an image generation method and an image generation device. Background technique [0003] Conventionally, there has been a technique for creating character images from photographs of faces. For example, in the technology described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-092657, a technology for changing each of a plurality of elements constituting a face to change facial expressions is described. [0004] However, the technology described in Patent Document 1 described above has a problem that it is not suitable for use in applications such as smartphones because the amount of data increases in order to change each element to change facial expressions. Contents of the invention [0005] The present invention has been made in view ...
