East Meets West at new California Arcade

Friday, December 13th, 2013

A new arcade in Walnut Creek California blends west and east with a cool combination of photo booth’s and arcade games. Amy Bauer and her husband John Fouhy opened their arcade, named Smile Tu Inc., hoping to capitalize on the appeal of photo booths among young people. Over the years, Bauer, who lives in the Bay Area, hosted several Japanese exchange students. She often took the students and her two daughters to Japantown in San Francisco, where arcades with Japanese-style photo booths are very popular. The booths, which print out stickers, were always a hit with her daughters and the exchange students, who likely had taken plenty of photos in the booths at home in Japan, where they are known as Purikura booths.

Looking for an idea for a new business, Bauer struck on the photo booths which she’d seen during these trips, and created her small arcade, which features three photo booths, three old school arcade games, and two theme rooms for birthday parties and other celebrations. Patrons can pay $10 for 15 minutes of photo booth fun, including the use of props and wigs to create their own photo stickers. Check out the full story here.

What is Purikura?

Friday, December 13th, 2013

Purikura is a style of photo booth that originated in Japan and continues to be very popular there. Purikura, which is short for “print club”, was introduced in the mid-1990’s in Japan and allows photo booth lovers to interact with their photos by adding designs, animated characters, writing on the photo using a stylus, and even editing facial features. When the photos are printed, they come out on sheets of stickers, which can be stuck just about anywhere and shared with friends. Purikura is so popular in Japan that there’s a whole culture that surrounds it and promotes certain editing techniques and photo taking strategy. Check out some Purikura photos and a guide to taking Purikura photos here.

Homemade Photo Booth Travels Worldwide

Wednesday, December 4th, 2013

The “Face-O-Mat” photo booth is the creation of Swiss artist Tobias Gutmann, who has taken his homemade cardboard photo booth throughout Europe, Africa, and Asia, making prints for happy customers. The novel idea is made even more so by the fact that the Face-O-Mat is a fully manual machine, and the prints it produces aren’t photos, they’re paintings created by Gutmann himself. The artist sets up his photo booth, which is essentially a decorated cardboard box with a divider in the middle and a cut-out viewing square that allows him to see his subject’s face. Patrons pay through a cut-out slot in the divider, and Gutmann then paints a quick 3-minute sketch (with options for black and white or color), and “prints” the sketch (while making printer sounds) through another slot in the divider. Check out some photos and a video of this cool photo booth concept here.

Animal Photo Booth Raises Money For Shelter

Thursday, November 21st, 2013

Thanksgiving is just a week away, and after that Christmas will be here before you know it. Kids everywhere love getting their picture taken with Santa and putting in their Christmas wish requests, but this year, at the Valley Animal Center in Fresno, California, animals got their chance to sit on Santa’s lap too. The animal shelter designed a homemade photo booth for their annual holiday bake sale and let pet lovers bring in their pets for a family photo with the big man himself. The event, appropriately dubbed “Santa Paws” raised money for the shelter, which is “central San Joaquin Valley’s largest no-kill shelter for dogs and cats.” Dogs, cats, and humans, were the most commonly photographed subjects, though Santa is also seen holding a rabbit in the photo spread. Check out some pictures here!

Father and Son Team Up for VW Van Photo Booth Project

Friday, November 15th, 2013

What do you get when combine a classic Volkswagen van, and a photo booth? A very cool idea! Or at least, that’s what this father and son team in Texas are hoping to do. William Nicol was inspired by his son’s love of photo booths and old VW vans to turn a van restoration project into a mobile photo booth project. While you might have thought of these vans as relics of the ’60s and ’70s, Volkswagen actually continues to produce them through a licensing agreement in Brazil. However, new safety regulations that go into effect next year will prohibit production of vehicles with a cab forward design, meaning production will cease in 2014. You won’t be seeing too many more of these classic old vans, but if Nicol gets his project running, you could see one with a photo booth in it. Check it out here.
