In my experience yes, linear algebra, graph theory, a little topology, category theory are pretty good. If you do raymarching rendering of scalar distance fields, a new form of rendering I'm currently interested in, there are forms of math different from traditional forward rendering that gives you superpowers: http://iquilezles.org/www/articles/distfunctions/distfunctions.htm http://iquilezles.org/www/articles/distfunctions/distfunctio...
