In this video you will learn how to move objects on a Bezier curve of your specification. This allows you to move objects in a curve instead of a straight line whilst also giving you full control over where the object starts and ends up at in addition to customising the curves gradient. The benefit of this is that you can have full control over how your object moves around the canvas, you are not limited to travelling on a certain axis, or from changing the objects direction mid-way through the animation.

📚 Materials/References:
