Cool idea but, given the rather high cost (not including iPad!), just don’t see the cost/benefit in my favor.
Nice concept and the animated GIF is a nice touch, but at a $3,900 price point for this setup that you still need to provide the internet access iPad yourself — numbers just don’t add up.
People can purchase or put together a photo specific related booth for under 1K at this point. The real feature is the App itself. I see selling a subscription to the App alone and charging a premium for it. Eventually that’s where I see this making a huge splash. I’d pay $300-400/yr subscription for something like this, maybe even $500/yr because it’s not the traditional photo booth app.
In the end, it’s a very high premium item that only the deep pocket studios may purchase, that’s if they haven’t already purchased a Photo Booth thats going to look more polished, and provide a higher profit because the start up cost is 1/3 to half of the $3,900 giffyyy cost.
