At Industrial Light & Magic, animation testing for the Indoraptor was started using a 3-D model to render the dinosaur's skeleton and musculature, and see how it would actually move, wanting it to walk like a raptor, on its hind legs, but also to get down on all fours like a big cat. But when the visual effects made him walk like that in the renderings, they noticed that his legs would collide with his elbows, making them elongate the proportion of his body from hip to shoulders, and shorten the arms slightly. When it came time to shoot, the effects crew wanted to use as much practical animatronics as they could, as the Indoraptor gets so close to people to really wanted that reaction from the actors and actresses. Once we got into post, however, we ended up replacing the Indoraptor scenes with CGI, getting the special details, like the texture and color of his irises. The cheeks blowing in and out, or the throat creasing as he swallows, as he has a lot of damage and scarring on his body, as if he's been mistreated, very rangy. Very muscly. J.A. Bayona thought of him as a malnourished street dog. The effects crew even gave the Indoraptor crazy synaptic twitches, so his muscles and skin would twitch like a horse's.
