An information processing apparatus includes a detection unit that detects a three-dimensional position and a posture of an object in an instruction three-dimensional region having an enlarged or reduced relationship with an observation three-dimensional region in which a virtual viewpoint and a virtual visual line are defined, a derivation unit that derives the viewpoint and the visual line corresponding to detection results of the detection unit depending on positional relationship information indicating a relative positional relationship between the observation three-dimensional region and the instruction three-dimensional region, and an acquisition unit that acquires a virtual viewpoint image showing a subject in a case in which the subject is observed with the viewpoint and the visual line derived by the derivation unit, the virtual viewpoint image being based on a plurality of images obtained by imaging an imaging region included in the observation three-dimensional region by a plurality of imaging apparatuses.
