A Compact Installation beside the Entrance
The entrance area offered limited space, so a small booth was selected for this installation. The Korean event report records that installation and capture preparation were completed within one hour.
That timing describes this particular site and setup. It is not a guaranteed installation time for other events. Access, available space, power and the final equipment choice need to be checked for each venue.
Keeping the Event Identity in the Download
Visitors took photos that were converted to an AI cartoon style and downloaded them to their phones using a QR code. The custom frames included the event name and branding, so the downloaded image retained the popup's identity.
The original report describes participation by families, couples and friends, as well as visitors continuing into the store after the photo experience. The booth gave people an activity to try at the entrance and an event-branded image to take away.
