In the scene where the actor follows his daughter outside a mansion and there’s a guard with a dog on a leash, and the dog leaps and barks at actors, the trainers stood near the front gate. On action the actor exited the house in a hurry, heading toward the gate. As the actor passed by the dog, trainer showed the actor how to tug the dog’s leash. In response to this signal, the dog lunged forward and started to bark.

For some of the unicorn VFX, they scanned the image of a horse on stage in front of green screen. We were on stage to make sure the horse was safe. They brought the horse onto stage and filmed it against the green screen. The floors had rubber matting to keep horse from slipping. No issues.
