In For Love of the Game, we created CG baseballs for shots when the motion of the ball was too specific to be captured during photography, or when the desired ball trajectory might have put an actor's safety at risk. In one shot, for example, a flyball hits an outfielder in the head and bounces back up on cue to land in a fans outstretched glove. We also added crowds to the empty sections of the stands in a few shots, and even repositioned a couple of players in the field.
