Jumbo Photo Strip Activation

How big is a jumbo photo strip?

Our standard is 8 x 26 inches, more than four times the length of a classic 2 x 6 photo booth strip, with three square editorial frames and a custom brand band. We can also print 8 x 18, 8 x 22 or 8 x 32 inch strips. Big enough to read across a room, and big enough that people on the street stop to look.

Are the jumbo strips printed on site?

Yes. Every strip is printed on site on premium large format photo paper and sleeved for the walk home, so guests leave with the finished print in hand.

How long do prints take?

Approximately 1.5 minutes per print. We can spool up 2 to 8 printers to scale the activation to your desired throughput.

Do we need a photographer?

No. The experience can run with a professional photographer directing each guest, or from a self-serve photo kiosk that handles the shoot and sends the strip straight to print. We'll recommend the right setup based on the look, budget and pace of your event.

How is this different from a regular photo booth strip?

Scale and production value. Studio lighting and a branded set give every frame a campaign look, whether a professional photographer is directing or guests shoot from a photo kiosk, and the print carries your brand at a size that works as advertising rather than a wallet keepsake.

Do guests get a digital copy?

Yes. Alongside the print, each guest gets a branded GIF by text or email before they leave. Every guest signs a digital photo waiver at check-in, along with any data capture you need.

Can we use the photos in our own marketing?

Yes. Every guest signs a photo waiver at check-in, and we deliver campaign-grade stills in galleries split by city and day. Fenty Beauty used guest portraits from its jumbo photo strip activation in its out-of-home (OOH) advertising campaigns.

Can the photos appear on a screen or media wall at the event?

Yes. We program an instant selects handoff so the latest frames appear on a media wall or storefront display, usually within a minute of capture.

How far in advance should we book?

The more lead time, the more room for set design and print approvals, but we have taken this format from first call to doors open in under three weeks.

Do you work with experiential agencies and producers?

Yes. Much of our work is produced alongside agency and in-house experiential teams. We slot into your production schedule, brand approvals and run of show, and can run the same playbook across multiple markets.

How much does a Jumbo Photo Strip Activation cost for an event?

Each creative project is unique and the production costs will invariably reflect that. Please give us a call or email us and we'll get back to you with a general estimate on costs straight away.

How much space does the experience need?

Plan for your photo set plus a print table of roughly 6 x 4 ft. The print station connects over WiFi, so it can sit off to the side or back of house to keep the floor clear. We confirm exact requirements against your venue plan during pre-production.

How many guests can you get through in an hour?

Throughput depends on how directed the shoot is and how many printers we run. For Fenty Beauty, four printers handled roughly 240 to 330 guests a day. With 2 to 8 printers spooled up, we size print capacity, capture stations and staffing against your expected attendance so the queue keeps moving.

How do you ensure our activation will run smoothly?

With our years of experience delivering the industry's most complex photo booth systems, we always ensure a trusted member of our technical team is onsite for your activation. Additionally, they can help manage your assigned brand ambassador staff to help run the experience.

What are the power requirements for this activation?

One dedicated 15-amp circuit outlet per 2 printers. Dedicated means nothing else, like DJ, lighting or engraving gear, is drawing from that circuit. Printers also run best in a cool, climate-controlled spot. We review your venue's electrical plan ahead of load-in and can bring battery power stations as backup.

What are the internet requirements?

We recommend a hardwired ethernet connection or a dedicated WiFi network with at least 25-30 Mbps up and down for smooth, real-time content delivery. As a backup, we bring our own hotspot to every event, so a spotty venue connection won't slow down your activation.
