How to paintover lots of video frames?

[quit32]

Hi guys I have a question

I want to animate using video frames as guidelines in photoshop. Is there a way I can

1) Import a video file as frames/ layers

2) Easily do paintovers of each frame on separate layers

Obviously I can just insert the video frames as single layers and create a new layer over the top of each frame and do a paintover however this is a long process.

IMPORTANT
I want to beable to see the last frames paintover with the new frame underneath so I can see what I just painted while still using the current video frame as reference. Is there some way to do this easily in photoshop as the animation panel is rubbish

I want to achieve something like this www(dot)youtube(dot)com/watch?v=cRZMjHzWXQc

HOWEVER, this guys has literally traced the frames, I need to use the previous paintover in conjunction with the new frame as reference. I am not tracing as such

I need to use the photoshop tools, I dont know if photoshop is the best software to use.

Thanks in advance guys

good question how ever if each layer is going to be different, you'll need to do each layer one at a time if I'm understanding you
