Moving picture processing device, moving picture processing method and program

A moving picture processing method, comprising:

• detecting, from a moving picture containing a plurality of cuts, transitions between the cuts;
• categorizing the plurality of cuts into a plurality of cut groups having mutually different feature amounts, and identifies a plurality of cut pairs including two or more sequential cuts belonging to the mutually different cut groups and being repeated in the moving picture;
• generating a predetermined number of the cut pairs, which are less than the plurality of cut pairs in number, from the plurality of cut pairs by combining at least a portion of the plurality of cuts in a manner that the two or more cuts constituting each cut pair belong to mutually different cut groups and a context of cut transitions in the moving picture is maintained;
• and
• generating a cut composition image including the generated cut pairs.
