Bézier curves how do they do?

They're used for animation, text rendering, and all sorts of curved shapes! But how do they actually work? well, like, that's what the video is about, so, watch it to find out etc!!


• Lots of love to
Jazz "queenjazz" Mickle for making the music ❱ https://queenjazz.bandcamp.com/
Grant "3Blue1Brown" Sanderson for pushing me to finally do this ❱    / 3blue1brown  
Pomax for their wonderful writeup on Bézier curves ❱ https://pomax.github.io/bezierinfo

• How was this video made?
Created in the Unity game engine
⭕ Using Shapes, my vector graphics plugin ❱ https://u3d.as/1W37
Using Mathfs, my math library ❱ https://github.com/FreyaHolmer/Mathfs
...along with a bunch of hacky, partially broken, procedural animation tools I made specifically for this video

• Did you know that "osculating" isn't pronounced that way?
