The Toledo Zoo to Do was definitely a night to remember. For the tenth straight year, we have been honored to be the official photo entertainment experience company for the Toledo Zoo and Aquarium annual PNC Zoo to Do Presented by Lexus Fundraiser. For this year’s Party with a Purpose, we had four separate photo and video experiences.

The first photo experience was with our Venture Booth using a green screen inside the Malawi Center for the Zoo to Do VIP Experience. The graphic arts team at the Toledo Zoo created all of our backgrounds and borders so that they would all match the graphics that were used for this year’s Sunset on the Savannah theme.

With this 2-hour experience, 105 individual photos were taken, 282 4x6s were printed and 73 people requested that their photos also be texted to them. We also supplied them with some fun zoo animal inflatable props that everyone loved and many used in their photos.

Our second experience for the pre-party on the African Adventure side of the zoo was our stationary Selfie Kiosks in the Arctic Encounter near the polar bear exhibit. We had two green screen digital photo stations and guests could instantly text their images straight to their phones.

For this 2-hour experience, 186 photos were taken. This experience was open to all and the guests could enjoy a few drinks and bites of food while watching the polar bears who were extremely active that day.

Some guests had fun creating a GIF with this experience.

After the main side of the zoo opened for the party, our staff headed over to that side. They transformed our Selfie Kiosks into our Walk-About Social Booths and continued capturing the fun.

Our Walk-About Social Booths roamed the main part of the zoo for the rest of the evening. Our Team took an additional 140 photos while roaming for a total of 326 photos captured by our digital booths.

Of the 326 photos taken with our digital booths, 294 were downloaded, and 50 people copied the link for their photos. 47 people shared their images straight from their text to Facebook and Instagram. The images shared directly from the text link to Facebook were then shared another 87 times with over 3,000 views on those photos alone. We don’t know how many that downloaded their photos shared them, but we have seen many that have been posted on social media. The average number of people in each photo was four and their average age was 40.

For our fourth experience at the 2024 Toledo Zoo to Do, our team from the VIP party moved to the Amphitheater and provided our 360 slow-motion video experience.

For this experience, we created 160 videos. Since videos are very large files, we text the videos to the guests. Most emails won’t accept files as large as the videos created by our 360. We also use royalty-free music so the videos won’t get taken down once shared on social media.

As with all of our photo booths for this event, the intro slide was also created by zoo staff.
