A Digital Abraham Lincoln

I'm from Illinois and have grown up with a deep appreciation of Abraham Lincoln. I've read a couple of books on him recently. The History Channel had a program on "Stealing Lincoln's Body," which proved interesting. In it they had a living, moving Lincoln that I thought was a well made-up actor. Surprise. This short featurette explains how they digitally created that "actor."
