The rig and animation was done in Maya with the rendering done in
Soft/Arnold. To be honest decisions like that are usually down to what
people are available - if you have a Maya rigger and Soft lighting and
renderers that's generally how the project gets done.

regional staff are more expensive in certain parts of the world. If you're
