Position equipment so it looks like your elf is either playing, practicing, or cheering on a team. You could create a mini goal, basket, or field.
Step 3: Position Your Elf
Place your elf in an active pose - "kicking" a ball, "shooting" a basket, or "cheering" with pom-poms. Make it look dynamic and energetic!
