The Complete Guide to Recording 360 Videos with Snap360

Recording a 360 video with Snap360 on a spinning platform

Recording 360 videos is one of the most exciting ways to capture and share the moments that make an event. With Snap360, the app for 360 photo booths, you can customize your recordings and share them in seconds, giving your guests an experience they have not had before. Here is how to do it, step by step.

1. How to Start a Video Recording in Snap360

Create Your Event

Before you start recording, set up your event so your projects stay organized:

  • Give it a name and a description: it makes the event easy to find later.
  • Customize the settings: make it easy to recognize and make it match the theme of your event.

Open the Recording Screen

Once your event is set up, go through the customization options:

  • Custom music: add tracks that fit the mood of your event.
  • Custom formats and overlays: use the ready made overlays or your own to lift the experience.
  • Intro and outro images: add and customize images to suit the kind of event you are running.
  • Speed and orientation: set them to whatever your recording needs.

Position the Device on the Photo Booth

Place your phone in the center of the 360 photo booth and make sure your guests are ready to start recording.

Start Automatic Recording


Recording starts on its own as soon as the booth begins to spin. This photo booth app detects the motion and starts recording without anyone having to touch anything, which keeps the whole thing simple.

  • Tip: make sure the music and the visual effects match the theme of the event, so every video feels unique and memorable.

2. Tips for Getting the Best Results

Set Up Your Customizations

Customize every video with elements that connect to the theme of the event:

  • Use viral, popular tracks to make the videos more shareable.
  • Try overlays or images that reinforce the immersive feel and the look of the event.
