This method of motion blurring is useful for still images. But IMO it is a lot
of wasted effort for animations, where motion exists across frames anyway.
Here, a much more practical solution is to render the frames without motion
blur, and then average a number of consecutive frames together to get the
blurring. One utility that can do this is Warp's Targa averager:
