Make your audience part of the collection.
A portrait captured at Selfie Station+ becomes themed AI artwork, then a branded trading-card design. The transformation and the physical takeaway give guests two reasons to participate: seeing their character and collecting their card.
Turn a campaign world into a personal collectible for fan events, brand launches and conferences. The creative direction and card treatment make the experience recognizably yours.

FROM PORTRAIT TO COLLECTIBLE
Put your guestsin a league of their own.
A guest portrait becomes an art-directed AI character, then a branded trading card they can hold, share and keep. The capture, visual world and card design work together as one experience.
Create your collection
Build a campaign around sports, illustrated heroes or a completely original character world. Approve the portrait direction, card frame, names and campaign details before production.
Make the takeaway count
Pair onsite printing with the finish and presentation that fit your brief. The examples include sports treatments, branded event cards and display-ready keepsakes. Final materials, personalization and production capacity are confirmed together.
A collection of possibilities.
Choose your format
Choose the portrait. Then build the collectible.
Make each guest the subject of a collectible. Start with a portrait, transform it into the approved visual world and finish it with a card design built for your campaign.
Best suited to: Sports hospitality, launches and recognition programs. Modelo provides a documented example of AI trading-card production.
AI transformation
Create an art-directed character from a guest portrait. Approve the visual direction and test representative guests before the event.
Original photography
Keep the guest’s photographed appearance and add a custom card design. Explore Custom Trading Cards for this format.
The finished card
Agree front and back artwork, finish, holder and any seal. Capture, printing, cutting and assembly each need space in the production plan.
Can we make cards for a non-sports event?
Yes. A card can celebrate a team, destination, profession or campaign character. Start with the story and the takeaway you want guests to keep.
Can every guest receive a card?
Share expected participation and operating hours. We plan capture and finishing together; total attendance alone does not determine the number of stations.
How closely will an AI image resemble the guest?
The style affects likeness. Review sample transformations and group requirements before approval; generated details can vary.
How do we keep card production from blocking the booth?
Plan portrait capture and finished-card collection as separate steps. Your floor plan should account for waiting guests, printing, cutting and any holder or packaging assembly. We confirm the workflow against your operating hours and target participation before recommending station counts.

The details that matter
Made for your event.
For agencies and sponsors
Give a sponsor a collectible identity: a player roster, employee series or campaign character set. Carry the artwork from the capture interface to the card and its presentation.
What you receive
A personalized collectible using the approved portrait transformation and card design. Printed cards, protective cases, branded top-loader stickers and digital delivery are selected together; metallic stock and holographic finishes are optional treatments.
Make it your own
Develop the character themes, card layout, guest-name treatment and sponsor artwork as one collection. Metallic paper, protective cases and holographic finishes can be scoped separately; approve samples before production.
Ways to build on this experience Optional pairings
Live Media Wall
Display approved guest results so the wider audience can see what is being created.
Custom Event Fabrication
Add a campaign-specific capture and collection environment.
Each addition has its own creative, space and production requirements. Save the options that interest you to discuss them together.
For your production plan
Know before you book.
Plan capture kiosks separately from the printing, cutting and collection counter. Allow room for a finishing table, consumable stock and guest pickup. Approve art and physical samples before confirming generation time, staffing and hourly capacity.
Talk through the logisticsYour dedicated production team
A dedicated team handles the project, with our own staff operating the experience. Creative preparation, setup, guest guidance, and handoff are planned as one turnkey service.
Connectivity and venue coordination
We bring our own 5G connection, or plan Starlink for outdoor and remote events where appropriate. We confirm coverage and site conditions in advance, and coordinate marshalling yards when heavy load-in requires them.
Insurance and approvals
A $5M certificate of insurance is available on request. Send the venue’s certificate-holder details and access requirements to your project team.
How do we plan for queues and peak attendance?
Share the expected guest count, busiest arrival periods and operating hours. Capture, processing and collection may run at different speeds. We test the selected workflow before confirming capacity; extra kiosks or finishing stations are scoped where they solve a real bottleneck.
When should we supply artwork?
For a branded production, a useful target is physical-branding approval around four weeks before the show, digital creative around three weeks before, and final sign-off 7–10 business days before load-in. These are planning targets, not universal lead times; fabrication and custom development may need longer.
What should our agency, sponsor and venue provide?
Share the date, location, booth number, floor plan, hours, access windows and production contact. Send vector logos, brand guidelines, campaign messaging and required legal copy, with one creative approver. The final plan assigns power, connectivity, venue permissions and guest-flow responsibilities clearly.
How are guest data and sharing handled?
Agree the fields, consent language, gallery access, delivery channels and retention period before launch. Receiving a photo is not blanket permission for marketing. Uploading, generation and delivery depend on connectivity; the event plan should include a tested response to an interruption.
