We had 15 extras including our three main characters (the woman on the beach; the friend and the unknown man) We positioned one camera on a dolly, and we used one handheld. For the handheld camera, the key was to allow the viewer to feel as if they were part of the crowd. it was very challenging trying to coordinate every one in the scene
After shooting, we found that the film from the camera on the dolly, was overall less in focus and was more distant which showed that there weren't that many people present, when we actually wanted to make it look like there were 30+. We mostly used shots from the hand held camera as they gave a more intimate, close up feel.
These are some screen grabs from our film:
