Simple with all the details. Enjoyed it, and just referred to it to create my very first R animated plot.

Very nice. I am surprised that you did not use lubridate. Animations can be great but tend to be overused. Time series seem like the one logical place to do so.

Have you considered demoing "scraping" of tables for instance (form sites that allow it of course).?

Nice video. Do you know if it is possible to get some data at the point? So as it is moving it will show the date and number of air passengers above the newest date?

file_renderer failed to copy frames to the destination directory,
