Employing umbral calculus [see \textit{S. Roman}, The umbral calculus, Academic Press, Boston (1984; Zbl 0536.33001)] generalizations of Bernstein polynomials and Bézier curves are introduced. The basic idea is to introduce a finite sequence of parameters in the definition of Bernstein polynomials which allows a great deal of freedom to the design of the corresponding generalized Bézier curves. Such curves continue to preserve some basic properties of the usual Bézier curves. Several illustrations are also given.
