AI Summary

In this Simul8 tutorial, you'll learn you how to use the Span tool in order to re-sample portions of "baked" fcurves in Maya 2018/19, so that they will follow a cubic curve kind of interpolation in-between the boundary keyframes of the selected portion of curve.

For operators using this as a reference, the main focus is Maya workflows, import/export, motion smoothing, move programming, and spline behaviour, while it also touches on target tracking. It should help when deciding which Flair workflow, robot behaviour, or setup area is relevant before opening the full video.

The practical setup context is that hardware referenced includes CAMERA_RED. This helps connect the video to the rig, accessory, software environment, or workflow label an operator may already be working with.

The chapter links below provide 5 timestamped jumps into the main setup, demonstration, and workflow moments, making it easier to go straight to the section that matches the issue or task being investigated.
