A small glimpse from work...
The biggest challenge was to create the interior scene with a basketball match inside.
Players weren’t the problem, because I had found the perfect cutout to place, but audience members were a bigger piece to take. I created several 3d characters with the Autodesk Character Generator. The quality of models were enough to use them in the background, but even though, I needed to make them in motion to create a live audience atmosphere.
Motions were created with Mixamo software, with different “cheering” animations. Imported there models, had the default animation skeleton from Autodesk Character generator, so for Mixamo it was easier to apply rigging.
After that, I imported rigged models to blender and shadered them with default textures. I also created simple masks in character’s textures, where the top clothes were unwrapped, to differentiate them on white and red team fans.

The rest of it is easier: I simply created polygons where the model should be placed, and I created a scatter system with the Geo-scatter addon. The characters should be rotated to the centre of the playground and should be distributed with opposite team’s colors and the one and the other side, and also should mix with each other with a smooth transmission.
