1. A composition control device, comprising:
control circuitry configured to
acquire composition designation operation information that is operation information designating a composition of an imaging device and includes information of a designated position on a screen that displays a captured image captured by the imaging device, wherein the acquired composition designation operation information includes direction designation operation information based on a direction designation operation that designates a direction in a plane of the screen, and
control an imaging range of the imaging device to adjust the composition of the imaging device based on subject information corresponding to the designated position of the composition designation operation information,
wherein the control circuitry is further configured to
control the imaging range by controlling a platform device to which the imaging device is attached, and
control the platform device to change a direction of the imaging device in a direction opposite to the direction designated by the direction designation operation when the subject information indicates a detected subject detected from the captured image.
