Since any video is either a sequence of still frames or a sequence of formula 
output, you can either render individual images and put them together, or you 
can generate still images from a formula or series of formulas, such as a 
Mandelbrot, and create a video from those.  There are plenty of tools out there 
that will take a series of images and create a video from them.

You might also try creating an SVG and converting it.

FFMPEG is my favorite converter on both Windows and Linux.
