Realistic Animal Art
Costumes, Puppets, Props, Animated Displays
Entertainment industries have always utilized the power and attraction of animals to viewers and guests worldwide.
Since 1979 and into 2026, we continue to serve the world’s most successful brands as we create realistic, animal-focused elements of entertainment (that show up on time, remember the show, and don’t eat or need a vet).
-
Our props aren't just displays; they are selfie-magnets that generate thousands of organic impressions for your venue.
-
In a world of screens, tactile realism is the only thing that creates a genuine 'Did you see that?' moment.
-
Engineered with 40 years of Hollywood show-control expertise to perform 24/7 without a 'vet' or a technician on standby.
-
An actual animal prop helps with the actor’s actual responses in close-ups (that might not even show the animal prop).
-
Real animals cannot safely perform many dangerous actions without experienced trainers being involved.
Any scene involving an attack (like a mauling or bite), a death, extreme physical stress (like a grizzly bear attack), fire, explosions, or close-quarters fighting must use a fake animal prop to ensure safety.
Realistic fake props (especially animatronics) allow actors to safely interact with a creature in ways a live animal never could, such as being held, struck, or getting close enough for high-detail close-up shots of an action.
-
Live animals are unpredictable and time-consuming to train and manage. A fake prop will perform the exact action required, on cue, for as many takes as necessary. This is crucial for hitting precise action and actor’s marks.
-
Performing with physical props has always been a tool of film making. Specific animals are script points in many screenplays. Having that exact animal prop has been our passion for over 40 years.
-
Real animals are subject to strict legal working hour limits (typically 4–6 hours), require rest periods, and often need duplicate animals for continuous shooting. A prop can be on set and ready 24/7, saving the production significant time and money on reshoots and scheduling.
-
For scenes involving the handling of a dead animal (like a carcass in a horror or historical film), a realistic prop must be used to comply with animal welfare laws and to obtain the "No animals were harmed" certification, as proving a genuine carcass was ethically sourced is often impossible.
