Claim Text:
1. A computer-implemented method for rendering a computer-generated animation sequence of shots, the method comprising: obtaining a first piece of animation corresponding to a first shot of the computer-generated animation sequence, determining a measurement of action in the first shot based on the one or more motion parameters of the first piece; determining a first frame rate for the first shot based on the determined measurement of action in the first shot; obtaining a second piece of animation corresponding to a second shot of the computer-generated animation sequence, determining a measurement of action in the second shot based on the one or more motion parameters of the second piece; determining a second frame rate for the second shot based on the determined measurement of action in the second shot, rendering the first shot using the first frame rate; rendering the second shot using the second frame rate; storing the rendered first shot with frame rate information indicating the first frame rate; and storing the rendered second shot with frame rate information indicating the second frame rate, wherein the first and second frame rate information convey to a display device the first and second frame rates for displaying the first and second shots, respectively.
