#2D Animation Package?

We're looking for an animation package of a different flavor. How about that imports photos (tiff, jpeg, whatever) as a two-dim frame. From this, one can manipulate the movement of the 2D car, say, beginning at one point, and then keyframing it to another point. Then the smart little computer comes along and fills in the middle frames (with user control and direction, of course). What do you think? Anything remotely like it? I'd like to try something where one doesn't have to create a 3D object before animation – it's along the lines of cell animation, only using RL photos…
