Choose the Experience That Fits Your Campaign
Start with what you want guests to create, then match the experience to your available space and production scope. Branding, output, delivery, and optional features vary by format.
A short loop may suit a campaign built around a quick guest-created clip; our Boomerang and GIF guide explains how that format works.
How to compare activation suppliers
- Relevant work: Ask for named campaigns and samples of the proposed format.
- Creative scope: Confirm physical branding, screen design, output templates and approval deadlines.
- Operations: Define staffing or self-operation, service hours, venue access, queue planning and equipment contingencies.
- Delivery: Specify the guest takeaway, supported delivery methods and file access.
- Data and reporting: Confirm optional consent fields, access, retention and the metrics the setup can document.
- Proposal: Compare the same requirements, including travel, production and any additional fees.
Use our campaign case studies to evaluate the creative execution behind the experience you are considering.
Branded Photos and Printed Takeaways
An open-air photo booth gives guests a posed photo experience with branded digital or printed images. Consider it when the takeaway is part of the campaign. Ask us to confirm the backdrop, print format, and delivery options for your event.
Short Branded Videos
A 360 photo booth creates short video clips around guests on a platform. Campaign artwork and music can shape the output. Ask us to confirm platform clearance, guest flow, the video treatment, and music permissions before production.
Roaming and Vogue Experiences
Roaming and Vogue options offer additional ways to bring a photo experience into your event. Tell us how guests will move through the space and the visual style you want; we’ll help identify the relevant format and customization options.
AI Photo Experiences
Explore a themed AI photo experience built around your campaign’s creative direction. Share the look you want, the intended audience, and how the finished images will be used so the creative approach and output can be reviewed before the event.
01 Branded guest content
Give guests branded photos or videos they can save and choose to share. Approve the visual treatment and confirm the supported delivery methods for your selected format. Guest posting and platform reach are separate outcomes that require their own measurement.
02bespoke branding options
- Fully branded booth wraps
- Custom backdrops and set design
- Branded digital templates and microsites
- Interactive overlays and animations
- Customized survey questions and data collection
- Custom sharing stations and branded landing pages
We ensure your brand is front and center at every stage of the guest experience.
03Engage your customer base while gathering data
Optional data capture can be scoped around the fields and guest choices your campaign needs. Confirm the purpose, consent wording, access, retention and handoff process before the event. Reporting should identify the measures available in the selected setup and distinguish delivery contacts from marketing opt-ins.
04 Plan data handling
Collect only the information needed for the agreed purpose. Confirm who can access it, how it will be transferred, how long it will be retained and who handles guest requests. Review campaign-specific requirements with the responsible team before launch.
Optional Data Capture and Event Analytics
If contact collection is part of your campaign, ask us to confirm whether the selected experience supports the fields and opt-in choices you need. Content delivery and permission for future marketing serve different purposes. Agree on the collection, access, retention, and handoff requirements before including data capture in the activation scope.
If contact collection is in scope, our photo booth lead-generation guide gives you a planning discussion to pair with the proposal.
Digital guest delivery
Confirm the delivery methods supported by your experience, such as email, text or a download link. Test guest instructions and connectivity before launch. Our photo booth sharing guide explains the difference between file delivery, voluntary public posts and measured reach.
Branding Across the Guest Experience
Bring your logo, colors, campaign artwork and any brand guidelines to our design team. The proposal should identify which physical and digital elements are included in the selected experience.
Plan the physical setup and digital artwork together with our cohesive event design guide.

- Capture and output: Review samples of the exact photo or video format and approved creative treatment.

Confirm the venue plan
Share the venue address, indoor or outdoor setting, activation area, and load-in schedule with your brief. Include any venue rules for vendor access, power, internet, parking, insurance documents, and teardown. Space and technical requirements vary by booth and any added set pieces, so confirm them against the final production plan.
