    I have particular making a 3d stroke of light in my scene. The line smoothly goes around objects and keeps a smooth circular shape to it. but sometimes i get sharp angles while making some curves (not all, but some curves.) All my keyframes are bezier so there is something else going on. Has anyone else encountered this (with a fix).

    I think it has to do with you using an Obscuration layer. The document states that alising will be an issue when you use an Obscuration Layer.

    You can try to increase the size of the particles. Blur it. and then apply the Sharpen effect. It’s an old Photoshop/AE trick when dealing with nasty logos. The quality of the solution depends on the initial problem as some issues are beyond this technique.
