What is the

curve?

Loads of people talk about it and I have no idea what it is.

Please explain! Thanks.

(also I posted this topic because the way the internet explains it is confusing for me)

without all the fancy math and to put it in the bare bones, say you have 3 points, and you want to make a curve. (or you want a curve, then you have to make 3 points). you can use a technique called a bezier curve.

wow so cool how does it work?!


like this.

of course you can extend bezier curve to how many points you want but it will get expensive.

useful for creating arcs for vfx, or you want to smooth out something.

another cool curve is called a spline but thats another rabbit hole you can dig.

Thanks so much I finally understand what it is

On the internet it sounded like P01 +a/2k^aus8*PO2 blabla bla
