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.

MiniMax-Remover – Taming Bad Noise Helps Video Object Removal Rotoscoping
https://github.com/zibojia/MiniMax-Remover
MiniMax-Remover is a fast and effective video object remover based on minimax optimization. It operates in two stages: the first stage trains a remover using a simplified DiT architecture, while the second stage distills a robust remover with CFG removal and fewer inference steps.

Mysterious animation wins best illusion of 2011 – Motion silencing illusion
The 2011 Best Illusion of the Year uses motion to render color changes invisible, and so reveals a quirk in our visual systems that is new to scientists.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_silencing_illusion
“It is a really beautiful effect, revealing something about how our visual system works that we didn’t know before,” said Daniel Simons, a professor at the University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana. Simons studies visual cognition, and did not work on this illusion. Before its creation, scientists didn’t know that motion had this effect on perception, Simons said.
A viewer stares at a speck at the center of a ring of colored dots, which continuously change color. When the ring begins to rotate around the speck, the color changes appear to stop. But this is an illusion. For some reason, the motion causes our visual system to ignore the color changes. (You can, however, see the color changes if you follow the rotating circles with your eyes.)
