Q: iPad Pro as drawing monitor?

Can you use an iPad Pro as you would a drawing monitor? I mean, can you show footage on it and use the pencil to define areas and track motion like you could use a mouse to do on a regular screen?

I know there are monitors that let you do this. And I know the Surface Pro might let you do this, but I'm guessing not with a Mac.

Thanks!

iMac (27-inch, Late 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10.1), i7 3.5 GHz, 32MB RAM, 4GB NVIDIA

I do not know since the pensile is not yet available. Mine ships in 1-2 weeks.

Also, it is not clear to me what you mean by "use the pencil to define areas and track motion".
Apple has not provided much info on the pen

To do what you want you may have to use an app that supports that
