Question: How to display multiple animations together

I want to display in 3d the following objects

• Animated plottools objects (e.g. a spinning cube)
• Static plot objects (e.g. surface plot)/li>
• Time dependent spacecurves (to trace the path of objects)

Technically I could

• create a sequence of time stamps
• generate for each time stamp a plot structure using plots:-display for all the above objects
• display the sequence of plot structures with plots:-display with the option insequence.

or

• create separate plots with plots:-animate for each time dependent object
• plot with plot3d all static objects
• display all plots with plots:-display

or

• defining a procedure containing all plotting commands as a function of time
• create a background plot of all static objects using plots:-display
• animate the procedure with a plots:-animate call with the background option

Without having any experience, my perference would be the last way. However I intend to generate some plot coordinates with dsolve,numeric. This would mean that at each point in time to be plotted, dsolve starts integration from the inital conditions (which I have not planned to update animation frame by animation frame)

Any recommensations or thoughts on this?
