So how is this better than the current method? It seems like a process of trading accuracy in favor of speed. I can see this being useful in time-critical animations.

I just did a quick test on the lipsync shot from the new ManCandy FAQ DVD — I'm really impressed with the quality and super render speed!

Great job Brecht!
