The process of keyframe interpolation has come a long way as a means of digital motion, and Adobe programs like Premiere Pro and After Effects make great use of the technology.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re working with keyframes and motion, you\u2019ll notice that you have several similar options for how to ramp and smooth your motion. Whether that\u2019s for digital zooms, motion, audio dips, or anything in between, it\u2019s important to know how to choose the right option.<\/p>\n<p>So, let\u2019s dive into what Bezier curves offer, and how you can use them on your next project.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"what-are-bezier-curves\">What Are Bezier Curves?<\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Cubic Bezier Curves - Under the Hood\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/106757336?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Based upon the mathematical\u00a0theorems of the\u00a0<a title=\"Bernstein polynomial\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Bernstein_polynomial\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Bernstein polynomial<\/a>, the modern &#8220;B\u00e9zier Curve&#8221; was pioneered by a French engineer named\u00a0<a title=\"Pierre B\u00e9zier\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pierre_B%C3%A9zier\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Pierre B\u00e9zier<\/a>, who used them to help with his work as a automobile designer in France. The basis of the Bezier curve is how to model smooth curves that are indefinitely scaleable and unbound by the limits of rasterization. For our purposes in video editing and keyframe interpolation, Bezier curves can specify the velocity over time of an object moving from a point A to a point B \u2014 rather than simply moving at a fixed number of pixels per step (<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/B%C3%A9zier_curve\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Wikipedia<\/a>).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"how-to-use-them\">How to Use Them<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-98094 size-full\" title=\"Bezier Curves: What Are They and How Do You Use Them? \u2014 Using Bezier Curves\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-1.jpg\" alt=\"Bezier Curves: What Are They and How Do You Use Them? \u2014 Using Bezier Curves\" width=\"755\" height=\"311\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-1.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-1.jpg?resize=300,124 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-1.jpg?resize=277,114 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-1.jpg?resize=359,148 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-1.jpg?resize=543,224 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-1.jpg?resize=560,231 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-1.jpg?resize=150,62 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So, how do we use Bezier curves in video editing? Well,\u00a0when working with motion that has clearly defined beginning points and ending points (a point A and a point B), a Bezier curve is a good\u00a0way to smooth the curve of the motion (as opposed to linear interpolation, wherein values change at a consistent pace from point A to point B). For example, if you&#8217;re working with two keyframes on a video clip in Premiere Pro (say motion, scale, or opacity), you can use the Bezier curve to smooth that transition&#8217;s pacing. Or, in a Premiere Pro timeline, you can use the Bezier curve for working with audio tracks when changing decibel levels.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 id=\"understanding-different-options\">Understanding Different Options<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-98093 size-full\" title=\"Bezier Curves: What Are They and How Do You Use Them? \u2014 Options\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-2.jpg\" alt=\"Bezier Curves: What Are They and How Do You Use Them? \u2014 Options\" width=\"755\" height=\"399\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-2.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-2.jpg?resize=300,159 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-2.jpg?resize=277,146 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-2.jpg?resize=359,190 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-2.jpg?resize=543,287 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-2.jpg?resize=560,296 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Bezier-Pic-2.jpg?resize=150,79 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"variable parbase section\">\n<div class=\"help-variable\">\n<p class=\"text\">Once you&#8217;ve decided on your keyframe points, you have several Bezier curve options at your disposal. In Premiere Pro, the standard options include Linear, Bezier, Auto-Bezier, Continuous Bezier, Hold, Ease In and Ease Out. Each operates slightly differently, but you can try them all out yourself to get a\u00a0feel for which one looks and feels (or sounds) right for your project. Here&#8217;s a breakdown of each option:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"text\"><strong>Linear<\/strong>: consistent rate of change between keyframes from beginning to end.<\/li>\n<li class=\"text\"><strong>Bezier<\/strong>: allows for manual adjustments to the shape of the curve and rate of change on both sides of your keyframe.<\/li>\n<li class=\"text\"><strong>Auto-Bezier<\/strong>: Like the manual Bezier, auto-Bezier automatically creates a smooth rate of change through each keyframe.<\/li>\n<li class=\"text\"><strong>Continuous Bezier<\/strong>: Similar to Bezier and auto-Bezier, but still gives you the option to change the shape of the curve on one side of the keyframe.<\/li>\n<li class=\"text\"><strong>Hold<\/strong>: non-Bezier option that changes the keyframe value without a gradual Bezier effect.<\/li>\n<li class=\"text\"><strong>Ease In<\/strong>: Simply slows down the value change when entering a keyframe.<\/li>\n<li class=\"text\"><strong>Ease Out<\/strong>: Simply slows down the value change when exiting a keyframe.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p>For more info on keyframing and video editing
