The generation unit (23f) generates free-viewpoint content in which the divided scenes are connected in the connection order decided by the decision unit (23e).

Abstract: An imaging unit (43) (first acquisition unit) of a video generation/display device (10a) (image processing device) acquires an image obtained by imaging, at each time, a subject (18) (object) in a situation in which the state of an illumination device (11) changes at each time. An illumination control information input unit (41) (second acquisition unit) acquires the state of the illumination device (11) at each time when the imaging unit (43) captures an image. Then, a foreground clipping processing unit (44a) (clipping unit) clips the subject (18) from the image captured by the imaging unit (43) based on the state of the illumination device (11) at each time acquired by the illumination control information input unit (41). A modeling processing unit (46) (model generation unit) generates a 3D model (18M) of the subject (18) clipped by the foreground clipping processing unit (44a).
