Robot arm video booth with an attendant
A robotic arm swings the camera around your guest at speed and the booth turns the move into a slow-motion clip with your overlay, ready on their phone. Priced on a written quote for events across Toronto and the GTA.
Delivery, setup and teardown, a trained attendant who sets the safety space, a custom video overlay, instant sharing and a private online gallery with every booking.
A robot photo booth uses a motorized robotic arm to move the camera instead of a person or a turning platform. The guest stands on a mark, the arm sweeps the camera toward and around them in a fast, smooth path, and the footage plays back in slow motion. The clip looks like the arrival shots filmed on a red carpet: a few seconds of motion that ends on a close, flattering frame.
This kind of rig is often called a glambot, and people search for it as a glambot camera or a robot arm video booth. The booth on this page is the Glambot-style robot arm booth run by Just Great Events, an owner-run company based in North York. It is not connected to, endorsed by or affiliated with any brand, show or company that uses the Glambot name.
A trained attendant from the team sets up the arm, marks out the space it needs, cues each guest and looks after sharing for the booked hours. The booth sits alongside the other video booths in the range, the 360 photo booth and the overhead 360 booth, and the full list of booths for photo booth rental in Toronto.
The attendant brings one guest or a couple onto the marked spot, explains the move and suggests a pose or a gesture to hold at the end.
On the cue, the robotic arm swings the camera around the guest at speed along a set path while the guest turns, flips their hair, lifts a glass or simply holds the pose.
The fast footage plays back in slow motion, so a quick move becomes a cinematic few seconds, finished with the overlay you approved before the event.
Instant digital sharing sends the clip to the guest’s phone, and every clip from the night goes into your private online gallery.
The arm moves quickly, so the space around it matters more than with a booth that stands still.
On arrival the attendant marks out a clear zone around the arm for your room and keeps guests outside it whenever the arm is moving.
The space the booth needs depends on the room and the layout around it. Send the spot you have in mind and its rough size, and it is confirmed before you book.
Guests wait their turn outside the marked area, which also keeps the background of each clip clear of people walking past.
Tell the team where the nearest outlets are. Cable routes are planned so nothing crosses the path guests use to reach the mark.
The booth fits at the entrance, so guests are filmed as they arrive dressed up for the night, before the room gets busy.
A slow-motion move around the couple shows the dress, the suit and the details, and guests take their own turn during the reception. See weddings.
Each clip carries your logo in the overlay and shows the product or outfit in motion. The booth can also be part of an event Just Great Events plans for you; see corporate events.
Graduates and birthday guests in formal wear get an arrival clip of their own. See school events and birthday parties.
