Animation Curves & Graph Editor
In digital animation, movement is represented by curves on a graph (value vs. time). The graph editor is the tool animators use to manipulate these curves.
Adjusting the shape of the curve changes the timing and spacing (ease-in, ease-out) of the movement. It is the primary tool for polishing digital animation in both 2D and 3D workflows.
