The Simplest way would be to have images of crowds on cards. Massive would be good but as you are asking in the newbie lounge I doubt this would be ideal for you.

You can apply animated footage of crowds to the cards. It will be far easier than you trying to learn Massive at this stage, as creating cards with animation on them is going to be a better learning curve than Massive right now believe me
