Photo Activations and Experiential Marketing in Minneapolis
Photo activations and experiential marketing are some of the best ways to promote a brand. It’s a highly effective form of interactive entertainment that is memorable and allows for additional reach – after all, videos and photos people take at events are often posted online so events attendees’ friends and followers will see them too. This photo activation in Minneapolis for Clorox was no exception.
Photo Activation in Minneapolis for Clorox
When the client approached us about a brand activation at Winter Classic in Minneapolis we were presented with a few objectives. We were to create sharable branded content through a photo or video experience for the attendees. It had to attract people to the booth, give them something unique to do and as a result, we were to share with them the content they create. After presenting some ideas, we settled on branded Boomerangs. While the whole booth was branded for Clorox, we also branded our Boomerang booth itself as well the output and the screen and made everything look cohesive. Given that the event was taking place during winter, multiple heaters were installed in the booth to make staff as well as event attendees comfortable while they were waiting for their turn.
Execution
With the branded Boomerang kiosk, branded booth, and branded output we were Winter Classic attracting attendees to the Clorox booth. Once in the booth, attendees would shoot their shot on the “hockey field” that was installed for them while the radar would measure their speed. All the results were recorded and whoever shot the fastest would get a prize. Needless to say, the booth was busy all day even though we had challenging cold weather for this Minnesota winter event. Overall, this was a unique photo activation that allowed us to not only entertain people but create photo content that’s branded and sharable so even after the event attendees would share it on their social media and promote our client in the most organic and authentic way.

Photo Activations and Marketing in Minneapolis
Photo activations and marketing in Minneapolis could help make a lasting impression on your current and potential customers. There are many tools you can utilize to turn a regular photo-op into a powerful marketing tool. Creative photo installations and green screen photo ops are just some of them. They are a very effective tool that can help you to promote your brand and connect it with your audience.
Green Screen Photo Activation At The State Fair
After more than a year of canceled events and social distancing, the great Minnesota get-together was a perfect opportunity for our client to promote their brand in a meaningful and entertaining way. We created a green screen photo op for State Fair attendees that included being inserted in a scene from a favorite Peacock show. These shows included Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Saved by the bell, Girls 5 Eva as well as a scene from Heart to Harr and Boss Baby. For this brand photo activation, we also put photos in branded lanyards so they can safely get home. Custom lanyards were also a perfect opportunity for additional branding. After the photos were taken, printed, and inserted into lanyards, attendees were also able to share them digitally via our sharing kiosks. We set up a branded email and added a small survey for our clients to collect data they could use after the activation. After the photo op attendees could step to the other side of the tent and speak with the company representative about their special offers and promotions as well as ask any other questions they might have.
The Effectiveness of the State Fair Photo Activation
Overall, during the State Fair thousands of images were taken, printed, and shared on social media by the attendees. Getting a photo where you look like you are a part of your favorite TV is a pretty fantastic green screen photo op and it left a very positive impression on those who came through the tent. It’s something that the event attendees will show to their friends and keep in their homes or workspaces, and in the end, this awesome memory will be promoting our client’s brand for a long time.

Halo Photo Booth Rental In Minneapolis at The Hutton House
Mom Boss is more than just a run. It’s an annual event that empowers, encourages, and supports women in our community. This year it took place at The Hutton House and participants had an option to run beautiful trails or Medicine Lake, or even participate virtually. After the race, everyone had some time to spend at the Hutton House and to enjoy mimosas, coffee, and donuts as well as some photo booth fun. The event was beautifully executed by our friends at Covey Events and our Boomerang photo booth rental added some fun!
Making Your Rental Extra Special
While we have more than 20 upscale backdrops to choose from, we love custom backdrops when we do our rentals. It makes the images, Boomerang and GIFs so much more extra special. For Mom Boss 5K, we had a gorgeous handmade mural illustration by Spoonful of Faith. The piece was an absolute wow factor!
Rental Details
With each of our halo photo booths, you can record Boomerangs, GIFs, or take photos. Custom templates are included in all the rentals and you can add digital props for extra fun. For brands, we are able to customize the booth itself adding a branded wrap to keep your brand front and center. This booth can be rented unattended or include our staff member for a full photo booth experience. Output can be texted or emailed to each participant and the gallery of all of the images is available at the end of the event.
This type of booth is digital-only and doesn’t include prints (after all, you can’t print GIFs and Boomerangs). With that being said, they will make your events the talk of the town!

Mar 16, 2020 | Boomerang Booth, Weddings
You want your wedding to be memorable. Capturing the energy of the night can be difficult with traditional photographs. Sometimes, a little motion can go a long way. Maddie and Ross put their best foot forward into their marriage by enlisting the help of an iPad Booth at Aria Minneapolis.
The Boomerang Booth
You know Boomerangs from social media, and now you can have quick and professionally shot mini-movies to share directly to Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, and Facebook. The Boomerang Booth operates just like a traditional photo booth, with the additional capability to shoot short, looping videos that are just as fun to watch as they are to make.
Personalize your memories by adding digital props or perhaps the couple’s names. This optional service can add an extra flair to the photos and videos to unify everyone’s experience.
The iPad Booth
An iPad Booth is a great way for people in the Minneapolis area to give their friends and family a new, fun way to enjoy their evening. Your pictures can move from stuffy, stiff, and redundant, to lively, engaging, and fun. Your guests will enjoy their time in the iPad Booth just as much as they will enjoy looking back on their evening.
The set up is minimal and attractive. If you have enough space for a tripod and a backdrop, you have enough room to create lasting memories. Why sit still when you can dance, smile, laugh, and have the ability to show off just how much fun you are having.
Time Into Pixels has been servicing the Minneapolis, Minnesota area for years. Their services and products have grown to be a cherished asset to many people at special events, just like Maddie and Ross at the Aria. You’re wedding should be as unique as your relationship, and there’s no better way to showcase that than by customizing a new, fun service to help capture the evening.

The Coolest Boomerang Booth for Metro by T-Mobile Ever!
When it comes to brand awareness, the way to gain attention is to keep people entertained. This is exactly what we did when we were invited recently to take part in a photoactivation for Metro by T-Mobile. This event was a part of the recent UFC fight night and took place at the Target Center. With only a few days to prepare, we created the coolest boomerang booth for Metro by T-Mobile Ever!
The First Round: Add The Boomerang Booth
This is a client that we loved working with and hope to work with again in the future. Metro by T-Mobile contacted us stating that they had a custom photo op set up for Fight Night at the Target Center. They were looking for a way to make it more fun and needed us to capture people posing with an actual UFC championship belt!
We were thrilled by the idea. Our creative energy consumed us and we thought it was so cool to have an actual UFC belt as a prop. Therefore, we happily offered our Boomerang kiosk as well as some branding added in for added brand awareness and pizzazz.
Round Two Kicks In
Before the event opened, we showed up with our equipment and set everything in place. Once people began to arrive, the real pre-UFC Fight Night party started. Once people discovered that they could take photos, GIFs, and Boomerangs with a real UFC Championship belt, they were excited. They also enjoyed having the option to text the images and GIFs to themselves and share them instantly on social media.
With a consistent line at all times, the turnout was amazing. Even the background with T-Mobile and Metro logos made the “fight photos” more impressive. It made them feel like true champions for a moment and they will feel like champions every time they see their boomerangs.
During the time we were there, more than 500 photos and boomerangs were captured. People were laughing, sharing, and coming back for a second photo op.
Round Three: The End Result
When people stepped out of the photo booth, they had created their own memories of the event. They were walking out of the photo area with a smile. Their photos and GIFs were shared so that family and friends would be envious of all the fun they missed out on. In the future, at another UFC Fight Night, those friends may decide to take part in it, as well as other events hosted by Metro and T-Mobile.
For us, this is one of many success stories that raised brand awareness. We enjoy helping companies up their marketing strategy by providing fun. If you want to raise your brand awareness, we will be happy to help you as well. Simply contact us for more information.
