Abstract

According to various examples, a method for providing, in an electronic device, an image can comprise the steps of: obtaining a first image of a subject by using a camera functionally connected to the electronic device; generating at least one image comprising a second image to be related to the first image; and concurrently displaying the first image on a first region of a display functionally connected to the electronic device, and the second image on a second region of the display.

Claims (33)

1. A method for an electronic device, the method comprising:

identifying a selection of information on an arrangement of at least two moving images;

displaying at least one of a plurality of image frames obtained by a camera functionally connected with the electronic device, through a screen comprising a specific region corresponding to the information on the arrangement, wherein an effect that separates the specific region from another region in the screen is applied to the screen;

in response to obtaining a first input while displaying the at least one of the plurality of image frames, generating a first moving image comprising first image frames corresponding to the specific region in a part of the plurality of image frames;

in response to obtaining a second input after obtaining the first input, generating a second moving image comprising second image frames corresponding to the specific region in another part of the plurality of image frames; and

concurrently displaying the first moving image on a first region of a display functionally connected with the electronic device and the second moving image on a second region of the display based on the information on the arrangement of the at least two moving images.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising

generating a third moving image by combining the first moving image with the second moving image.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the concurrent displaying comprises displaying the first moving image at a first playback speed and the second moving image at a second playback speed different from the first playback speed.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the specific region has a predetermined size and a predetermined location in the screen.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein an object indicating the information on the arrangement of the at least two moving images is displayed through the screen, and

wherein the information on the arrangement of the at least two moving images comprises information on an arrangement of a moving image being currently recorded among the at least two moving images.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

executing a camera application; and

dividing a live-view region of the camera application into a plurality of regions comprising the first region and the second region.

7. An electronic device comprising:

a display;

a camera; and

a processor functionally connected to the camera and the display, wherein the processor is configured to:

identify a selection of information on an arrangement of at least two moving images;

control the display to display at least one of a plurality of image frames obtained by the camera, through a screen comprising a specific region corresponding to the information on the arrangement, wherein an effect that separates the specific region from another region in the screen is applied to the screen;

in response to obtaining a first input while displaying the at least one of the plurality of image frames, generate a first moving image comprising first image frames corresponding to the specific region in a part of the plurality of image frames;

in response to obtaining a second input after obtaining the first input, generate a second moving image comprising second image frames corresponding to the specific region in another part of the plurality of image frames; and

control the display to concurrently display the first moving image on a first region of the display and the second moving image on a second region of the display based on the information on the arrangement of the at least two moving images.

8. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to generate a third moving image by combining the first moving image with the second moving image.

9. The electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to transmit the third moving image to an external electronic device by using a communication module functionally connected with the electronic device.

10. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to display the first moving image at a first playback speed and the second moving image at a second playback speed different from the first playback speed.

11. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the specific region has a predetermined size and a predetermined location in the screen.

12. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein an object indicating the information on the arrangement of the at least two moving images is displayed through the screen, and

wherein the information on the arrangement of the at least two moving images comprises information on an arrangement of a moving image being currently recorded among the at least two moving images.

13. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

execute a camera application; and

divide a live-view region of the camera application into a plurality of regions comprising the first region and the second region.
