Something different
for the staff party.

Give colleagues a reason to pause, laugh and compare portraits. A real robot draws each one on paper while guests watch, and our attendant runs the station.

Planning the evening

Works around
your evening.

A booked drawing window
2 hours of drawing time alongside dinner or mingling. Extra time is $125 per robot per hour, in 30-minute blocks.
Pauses when you need them
If the robots pause during dinner or speeches, paused time is $95 per hour.
Something to watch or try
Colleagues can watch, compare portraits or take a turn. Nobody has to perform.
A drawing to take home
Each portrait is drawn in pen on 6 × 4 inch card, in a realistic or caricature style.
The Process

How it works
at your party.

Three steps, run by our attendant. You don’t need to brief your guests.

1
We arrive early and set up

We arrive at least 30 minutes before your drawing time starts, set up our table, robots and photo tablet, and test everything. We bring our own internet hotspot, so no venue WiFi is needed.

2
Guests step in whenever they like

Each portrait takes about 1.5 to 2.5 minutes, depending on the style. Guests join at any point during your booked drawing time; our attendant guides them through the process and manages the flow.

3
Colleagues take their drawing home

Each portrait is drawn in pen on 6 × 4 inch card and handed to the guest: a drawing, not a print. Digital copies can be arranged before the event (price on request). We pack down in about 20 minutes afterwards.

For the Organiser

You don’t run
any of it.

Before the party we’ll agree on the space, power and drawing window. On the night, our attendant runs the station.

planners ask first.

It’s different: a photo booth prints a photo, while here guests watch a robot draw their portrait line by line, in pen, and take home a drawing.
Sample portraits

Realistic or caricature.
Guests choose.

Guests choose a realistic line portrait or a caricature, in a simple or detailed version. Full body, group and pet portraits are available too.

Each portrait is drawn in pen by the robot on 6 × 4 inch, 300 gsm card. It’s a drawing, not a print.
