First springing from the mind of Beatrix Potter, Peter Rabbit is a creature that has captured the imagination of children for more than a century. So there was plenty of pressure when it came to bringing the beloved character to life on the big screen. Animal Logic rose to the occasion, with the Australian company having to get inventive. To achieve a seamless hybrid of live action and animation for Peter Rabbit (2018), they used prop rabbits during the shoot so cast members had a tangible property to interact with. In post-production, the Prop Peters were replaced with an animated version by visual effect artists.
