Abstract

In an image controlling apparatus, an image data input from an image reproducing device 14 to a motion picture recording unit 71 is stored in a RAM 72 by making the image data corresponding to an event by a pad operation in a recording mode RM. Also, in a play mode PM, a data reading unit 73 selectively reads the image data from the RAM 72 in accordance with an event by a pad operation. In an external controlling mode, an image data is selectively read from the RAM 72 in accordance with detection of an event from an external input signal. An image controlling unit 74 generates an image signal in accordance with the read image data, adds an image effect, synthesizes with a real time image signal from the image reproducing device 14, and displays a corresponding image on an image display 15.
