1. An image transmission apparatus comprising:
circuitry configured to
generate a display target image having a display non-target region reflecting settings of a safe area of a display screen;
cause the display screen to display, on a first terminal, an actual display image constituting a portion of the display target image;
generate a transmission image that represents the portion of the display target image and clips a portion of the display non-target region from the transmission image;
transmit the transmission image for display on a second terminal;
generate the display target image formed of a first image and a second image overlaid with each other, the first image being based on an image rendered in a first frame buffer by a first application program, the second image being based on an image rendered in a second frame buffer by a second application program; and
arrange the first image of a predetermined size in a predetermined position inside the display target image regardless of whether or not the display target image partially including the first image sized to reflect the settings is generated.
