Ah; I'd only looked at the still shots on the page, not the video. It looks like he's
stitching (and CP'ing) each frame of the video from 4 star-stax'd images separately.
I don't understand why.
Surely using a template project, based on a sample 4 image set would provide a transform
set for all the frames from a given camera position, which would then be scriptable?
