About

I'm an Animation Professor at LUCA School of Arts, campus C-mine in Genk, Belgium. I teach at the Re:Anima Joint Master in Animation and I'm a senior researcher at the Inter-Actions Research Unit. My research interests include philosophy of Technics, power relations inscribed in and reinforced by technical objects, and decolonial perspectives in animation. Previously, I was an Animation Professor at Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG), in Brazil. MFA and PhD by the Graduate Program in Arts at EBA/UFMG. I'm also a free software advocate, animator, rigger and I also like to code. You can see some of my works and know a bit more about me at:

Blender Animation Book

I've written a book about Rigging and Animation in Blender for Packt Publishing. You can get the files here.

Old Blog

Yes, I had a blog. Haven't updated it since 2011. Anyway, if you need something from there I have kept backwards compatibility and you can read it below.

The January edition of Computer Arts Brasil brings a humble Blender tutorial by yours truly. :)

Yeah... I found it very cool to get invited, and now I hope to publish some tutorials often. In this edition I talked about using Blender in a pipeline where the final composition is made with another app, like Adobe After Effects. Making the render in passes and using the node "File Output" is a very cool feature in Blender to make things easier.

Virgílio.
Fui ontem na casa de uma amiga que também faz arquitetura e acabei folheando umas revistas de 3d que encontrei.

Qual não foi minha surpresa quando folheando encontrei a cara do Mormon !!!! aí pensei ué???

Aí lembrei de ter visto aqui a capa da revista e faço questão de deixar um abraço.

Muito bacana o artigo. Material de primeira numa revista bem profissional.

Parabéns ! ( e obrigado pela grata surpresa de ver o Blender numa revista de 3D nacional :)
