Santa Monica, Calif. - Yahoo Music said on Thursday that it partnered with graphics chipmaker Nvidia to launch Yahoo Artist Mods, a feature that lets users create their own animated music videos. Initially, users will be able to control backgrounds, lighting and camera angles when creating new versions of videos including "Just Stop" by Disturbed and "Good Times" by Tommy Lee, with additional videos from Sean Paul and Lil' Wayne to follow. The feature requires that users download ModMaker, a rendering engine developed by Big Bear Entertainment using Nvidia's Quadro graphics technology.
