I noticed that too but only in the final render and I didn't want to
rerender then.

I don't use advanced math, only things like solving linear equations and
such (ok, also a bit trigonometry occasionally). The tricky part is to have
the creativity to come up with the right techniques I guess.

One of the things I've learned that I've had the most use of in many
different projects is to take a lot of samples, store them in arrays, and
then interpolate linearly between them. It's extremely powerful. A typical
use is to move a point with constant speed along a spline even though the
spline doesn't have constant speed.

But anyway, so far all my animations have been merely tests. I admire those
who come beyond that...
