Voltaire the Rat

These scenes were part on another, feature length, end of year special,
called "The Princess and the Vagabond".
The digital rat was done at the Visual effects department,
at "CGP-Central Globo Produções" TVGLOBO all rights reserved.
Alexandre "Thunndro" Areal was Head of the project and also the project's
TD.
Marcos Piolla modeled Voltaire in Lightwave and rigged it in Softimage.
Thunndro did the render passes from the base colours to the furr in
Softimage`s Mental Ray and composed the 3D passes in After Effects. He
also did all the textures and lighting and colour correction, most of the
compositing and managed the final output. He did most of the scene props
and digital BGs.
Animators were Myself(who had the biggest load on animation), Marcelo
Merola, Pedro Vicente, Paula Gouvea, Jan Habib and Alexandre Martins, who
also Animated at the end of the project and helped in the compositing.
