Vinicius para Crianças - Arca de Noé was a Brazilian musical program directed by Ewaldo Ruy and Augusto César Vannucci. It was aired originally on October 10, 1980 on TV Globo.[1]
The set designer Federico Padilla created ample spaces, set up at the Teatro Fênix, in the Jardim Botânico neighborhood, in Rio de Janeiro, allowing a great movement of musicians and actors on stage.
The stage set also made use of some effects, such as chromakey - a feature that allows the image captured by one camera to be inserted over another, creating the foreground and background impression. Thus it was possible to create a playful atmosphere, reinforcing the poetry of Vinicius de Moraes.
