FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT EACH SERVICE
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS PhotoBooth
01. How does the PhotoBooth service work?
The PhotoBooth service allows people to create fun photos to take home as souvenirs. We generally suggest the standard service that prints 2 strips of 3 photos every time someone does a session. The fun thing about the strip of 3 photos is that guests can exchange their creations.
02. Can I print the photos in different colors and sizes?
Yes. Our printers can print in 5x15cm, 10x15cm and 15x20cm. Also, once the guests are inside the booth, they can choose 3 different background colors: B&W, color or sepia.
03. Can the BA Booth PhotoBooth service work simultaneously with the VideoBooth service?
Yes. Our booths have the capability to work with the PhotoBooth service alone or together with the VideoBooth (upon request and for an extra charge). Basically, the user can record a video message and/or create a photo.

There is no specific amount of time, but we suggest that you do it with as much time in advance as possible to make sure the service is available.

06. What is the difference between the 3 types of PhotoBooth booths?
They all have the same functionality but their structures are all different. The Premium Booth is a white lacquered hard wood structure that gives the booth a classy and elegant look; the Inflatable Booth has the same shape as the Premium Booth but, since it is inflatable, it can fit more people inside and is generally used in open-air spaces (e.g.: gardens); and the Totem Booth with Curtain has the great advantage that it can be assembled anywhere, it has a capacity of up to 8 people, and it offers a wide variety of custom curtains to choose from.
07. How long does BA Booth need to set everything up before the event starts?
If you choose the Premium Booth, our team will set the booth up before the event's kick-off time, and the electronic equipment will be installed one hour before our service begins. Everything will be ready to begin on time. At the end of the party -or the morning after,- our ligistics team will remove the booth.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS VideoBooth
01. How does the VideoBooth service work?
People get in the booth and record a 15-second video message for the party host/s. After pressing 'play,' guests get inspired and leave the message they want -be it funny, sentimental or something that makes absolutely no sense. Everybody does what they can, and this is the best part of the service!
02. Can the BA Booth VideoBooth service work simultaneously with the PhotoBooth service?
Yes. Our booths have the capability to work with the PhotoBooth service alone or together with the VideoBooth (upon request and for an extra charge). Basically, the user can record a video message and/or create a photo.
03. Do videos get edited and screened live at the party?
The service can be hired with or without the editing option. If you hire it WITHOUT the editing option, the party host/s will get a DVD with all videos recorded separately as the final product. However, if you hire the VideoBooth WITH the editing option, a BA Booth's Editor attends the event to compile all contents and turn them into one video which will be shown on the big screen at the party for everyone to enjoy.
Also, and for the same price, you can request to get the videos edited live but not screened at the party.
DVDs are handed in to the customer 1 week after the event.

The Premium Booth is a white lacquered hard wood structure that gives the booth a classy and elegant look; the Inflatable Booth has the same shape as the Premium Booth but since it is inflatable, it can fit more people inside, and it is generally used in open-air spaces (e.g.: gardens); and the Totem Booth with Curtain has the great advantage that it can be assembled anywhere, it has a capacity of up to 8 people and it offers a wide variety of custom curtains to choose from.
07. Which of the 3 booths should I hire?
If you can splurge, we recommend the Premium Booth because it's the one that offers the best sound isolation system. Sometimes the music at the party is too loud, or the booth is placed too close to where the music comes from, so you don't want the outer sound to interfere with what is being done inside the booth.
In any case, all booths work really well and offer an excellent service. However, no matter which booth you go for, we do recommend to place the booth in a visible place but as far away from the music source as possible.
08. What kind of messages do guests leave when they get inside the booth?
Honestly, this is up to each guest and how creative they get once they are inside the booth. This is what makes this service so much fun. Anyways, if you wish to get something more to your liking or more specific, you can create a theme so all guests have to leave a message related to it.
09. How long does BA Booth need to set everything up before the event starts?
If you choose the Premium Booth, our team will set the booth up before the event's kick-off time, and the electronic equipment will be installed one hour before our service begins.
