crowd scenes

Populated wide shots

Crowd scenes are sequences in films, plays, or other productions featuring large groups of people, typically requiring many extras and complex choreography.

The term extends to any depiction of masses gathered together: The director is famous for his epic crowd scenes.

By extension, crowd scenes can describe real-life situations involving throngs of people: The airport was pure crowd scenes during the holiday rush.
