thx fr lnk.  it reminds me of what handle-barbarian did to cartoon animation. it will become very popular because the demographic using mobile devices can be targetted by this. also makes animation more accessible to people who can't draw.  this technique can cut down frame production time from 15+ minutes per frame to one minute or less, as it's amenable to primitive tweening algorithms that don't require any of these 3d animation packages like poser or c4d, both of which are too complex for new users IMVHO.
