        It instructs Tecplot 360 to capture the current state of the plot or
        workspace (see the *region* parameter in the contexts above) as a
        single frame in the resulting animation. Typical usage is to make small
        changes to the plot, calling `animation.export_animation_frame()` after
        each change to create a smooth transition from one view to another. For
        a detailed example, see `animation_mpeg4`. The following example is an
        excerpt from the MPEG-4 example code::

[docs] class animation_avi(animation): r'''Frame-by-frame AVI animation context. Parameters: filename (`pathlib.Path` or `str`): The resulting video file name or path, relative to Python's current working directory. width (`int`, optional): The width of the video in pixels. (default: 800) animation_speed (`int`, optional): The frame-rate of the video in frames per second. (default: 10) region (`Frame <tecplot.layout.Frame>` or `ExportRegion`, optional): The rectangular area to be exported. This can be a specific `Frame <tecplot.layout.Frame>` object or one of `ExportRegion.CurrentFrame`, `ExportRegion.AllFrames` (default) or `ExportRegion.WorkArea`. supersample (`int`, optional): Controls the amount of anti-aliasing used in each frame. Valid values are 1-16. A value of **1** indicates that no antialiasing will be used. Antialiasing smooths jagged edges on text, lines, and edges of the video output by the process of supersampling. *Some graphics cards* can cause Tecplot 360 to crash when larger anti-aliasing values are used. If this occurs on your machine, try updating your graphics driver or using a lower anti-aliasing value. (default: **3**) format_options (`str`, optional): A string of options passed directly to the underlying application `FFmpeg <https://www.ffmpeg.org/>`_. By default, this will be "-vcodec mjpeg -q:v 5". This is a `context manager <https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#context-managers>`_ and must be invoked using the `with <https://docs.python.org/3/reference/compound_stmts.html#with>`_ statement.

This is done using the context method `animation.export_animation_frame()` as shown in the example below, at which point the specified region or plot is rendered.
