Spline Path Control is a simple tool designed to make it easy to create motion controls. It allows you to create and animate shapes that follow splines, and then export the result as a
.webmvideo file.
This project was created to simplify the process of generating control videos for tools like VACE. Use it to control the motion of anything (camera movement, objects, humans etc) all without extra prompting.- Multi-Spline Editing: Create multiple, independent spline paths
- Easy To Use Controls: Quickly edit splines and points
- Full Control of Splines and Shapes:
- Start Frame: Set a delay before a spline’s animation begins.
- Duration: Control the speed of the shape along its path.
- Easing: Apply
Linear,Ease-in,Ease-out, andEase-in-outfunctions for smooth acceleration and deceleration. - Tension: Adjust the “curviness” of the spline path.
- Shape Customization: Change the shape (circle, square, triangle), size, fill color, and border.
- Reference Images: Drag and drop or upload a background image to trace paths over an existing image.
- WebM Export: Export your animation with a white background, perfect for use as a control video in VACE.

AI-generated Drake and The Weeknd song goes viral
https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-65298834
“Drake’s complaint came after Universal Music Group wrote to streaming services including Spotify and Apple Music, asking them to prevent artificial intelligence companies from accessing their libraries.
It is thought companies have been using the music to “train” their software.
“We will not hesitate to take steps to protect our rights and those of our artists,” UMG warned in the email, first obtained by the Financial Times.
Several websites already offer fans the ability to create new songs using soundalike voices of pop’s biggest stars.
French DJ David Guetta recently used a site called uberduck.ai to mimic the voice of Eminem and add it to one of his instrumentals.
“I’m sure the future of music is in AI,” he told the BBC.”

Ethan Roffler interviews CG Supervisor Daniele Tosti
Ethan Roffler
I recently had the honor of interviewing this VFX genius and gained great insight into what it takes to work in the entertainment industry. Keep in mind, these questions are coming from an artist’s perspective but can be applied to any creative individual looking for some wisdom from a professional. So grab a drink, sit back, and enjoy this fun and insightful conversation.
Ethan
To start, I just wanted to say thank you so much for taking the time for this interview!Daniele
My pleasure.
When I started my career I struggled to find help. Even people in the industry at the time were not that helpful. Because of that, I decided very early on that I was going to do exactly the opposite. I spend most of my weekends talking or helping students. ;)Ethan

That’s awesome! I have also come across the same struggle! Just a heads up, this will probably be the most informal interview you’ll ever have haha! Okay, so let’s start with a small introduction!
