I am doing a video short and need to make a track of something like a
crowd of 2000, or so, actually yelling something. Think a crowd a
football game yelling something in unison. As I can't assemble a crowd
this size, is there anyway to generate it? Basically looking for a way
to construct this type of sound.

Thanks for any help

I would think get a few people maybe 10-20, and just overdub to make a
sizable crowd. Add compression and delay/reverb to taste.

The Country Joe and the Fish "Fish Cheer" (Give me an F!)
was done by continually overdubbing a handful of people,
band members and others, at the studio.

Did you entertain the troops?
Yes. Well, I'm pretty sure they were entertained.

You can layer it with overdubs. BUT, the more people you have to start
out, the better. And you want to do the original tracking outdoors if
you can, because you want that outdoor acoustic.

Do each overdub with a different mic at a different distance & in a
different ambience.

And especially if it's stereo, with the people all standing in different
positions each time

If you;re faking it from one track, play differently-timed segments of it,
pan each one differently, eq each one differently, and add different amounts
and kinds of reverb to each.
