What is the 'zoo cam' concept and how do teams use it with Fanatic Filters?

The 'zoo cam' is a popular creative approach where your camera operator cycles through different animal filters as they find fans in the crowd during a Fanatic Filters activation. Rather than applying the same filter to everyone, the operator switches between various animal transformations — perhaps a lion for one group, a bear for another, and so on. This creates variety, keeps the content fresh, and often generates more crowd reactions as fans anticipate which animal they might become. It's a simple concept that teams at all levels have found effective for adding an extra element of surprise and entertainment to their filter activations.
