From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
tweening          An {interpolation} technique where an {animation}       program generates extra frames between the key frames that the       user has created.   This gives smoother animation without the       user having to draw every frame.          A scene is described by a mathematical model - a set of two-       or three-dimensional objects whose positions in are given by       sets of coordinates.   Tweening uses mathematical formulae to       generate these coordinates at a sequence of discrete times.       The simplest system would move each point at a constant rate       in a straight line between its initial and final positions,       though other kinds of path are possible.   The coordinates at       each time step are used to generate (or "render") a       two-dimensional image of the scene which forms one "frame" of       the animation.          Tweening is similar to {morphing} except that morphing is       usually performed by interpolating between corresponding       points marked by the user on two images, rather than between       two configurations of a model.          (1995-04-04)
