video in AGS?

Hey just out of curiousity [well, curiosity at this point], can video be used as animations instead of sprites [ie: have the character be like in Gabriel Knights 2 or Phantasmagoria, as opposed to the QG games]?
I realize that would be way rough, as you'd have to track down costumes, take into consideration light interaction and whatnot, but I think there's some potential there, and since visual effects is my major [2d], that might actualy work out with something. Might be able to round up some students from different disciplines at my school to work on somethin'. ;)

Sure, if you convert the video to sprites. Not as easy as it sounds, but MK also did it.
