ABSTRACT

    This thesis presents a method one can use to obey a
certain class of constraints between spline curves in a
keyframe  inbetweening environment. The general problem
is  ensuring  that  constraints,  which  are  true  for
keyframes, will also be true for the computer-generated
inbetween frames.

    Various  types  of constraints are outlined.  A set
of  conditions on the interpolation method are outlined
such  that  linear  mapping  constraints can be obeyed.
Mention  is  also  made of various constraints that are
not   expressible  as  linear  mappings,  to  point  to
directions of future research.
