Everyone thinks the magic of karaoke is all about the high notes and mic drops. But let’s be honest, the real gold is what happens before the chorus kicks in. That nervous energy, the silent agreement between teammates to go full popstar, and those chaotic moments in the photo booth that you’ll be laughing about for months? That’s the good stuff.
Our karaoke pod doubles as a team photo booth with its exceptional photo and video capabilities to capture every moment, from before the first note to the last mic drop. The above link shows how Sky TV in the UK teamed up with Singpods and the Sing film to create singalong versions in the pod dueting with the characters of the film. All staff got to record their versions of the songs, which got automatically uploaded onto a custom website for each head office, to create an engaging competition between all Sky TV sites around the UK.
Before you channel your inner Adele or go full Freddie Mercury, there’s a moment. A moment for dramatic poses, exaggerated mic checks, and diva-style stares into the camera. And where better to capture it all than inside the karaoke pod itself?
Don’t underestimate the power of a team photo booth at a work event. You might think it’s just a quick picture before the real action, but it’s actually the soul of any properly fun night. Think about it… where else can the CFO wear a feather boa without HR raising an eyebrow?
It’s the one spot where everyone can let loose without needing to know the lyrics to Bohemian Rhapsody. Your team can bond over the ridiculousness of a viking helmet and oversized sunnies before ever starting the music. And that’s the trick. This moment gives everyone – from your shy intern to your overenthusiastic sales exec – a reason to drop their guard and say, "Alright, let’s do this."
Because let’s face it: not everyone is a born performer. But everyone can pull a ridiculous face. That’s the entry point. It’s inclusive, it’s silly, and it’s a guaranteed mood lifter. You know what else it is? A secret weapon for building up hype before the first chorus even hits. It’s not a delay to the main event, it’s the build-up. And every great performance needs one.
We’ve seen it all: the overly serious band poses, the ‘80s boyband vibes, the team pyramid that probably violated health and safety regulations. And every single one of those moments made the actual karaoke ten times better. Because by the time your squad hits the first note, they’ve already shared a laugh, found their rhythm, and posed like they’re headlining Glastonbury.
That's the spirit that makes fun corporate events actually fun. Not the lukewarm canapés or the awkward team-building exercises involving string and marshmallows. No, it’s the spontaneous, slightly unhinged, photo booth energy that kicks off the night properly. It’s people showing up as their weirdest, most wonderful selves and then doubling down with a microphone.
And here’s the bonus: the pics. You walk away with a gallery link to all your best moments, available in photo, video or GIF form. Those photos and videos are going to haunt the office Slack channels (in the best way) for months. They’re the visual soundtrack of a night that started with silly poses and ended in pitchy harmony. And they’re a reminder that the team isn’t just made up of job titles. It’s made of legends, show-offs, and surprisingly good falsettos.
You know what’s even better? Photos after your moment of grandeur. That sweaty, post-performance glow, the victory poses, the way everyone’s laughing because someone just screamed through the chorus of “Living on a Prayer.” The pod's photo capabilities showcase your opening act and your encore.
Compare before and after shots. Let your team capture the pre-performance nerves and then follow it up with post-performance triumph. Those side-by-side photos tell the whole story: nerves, effort, and absolute joy. Everyone’s got a glow when they’ve just smashed a song with their mates.
And for the overachievers out there, the pod makes the photo booth part of the karaoke judging panel. Score each team not just on pitch and power, but on sass, stage presence, and of course, best before and after snap. It’s a celebration of spirit, not just sound.
So here’s a tip to use every feature the pod offers. Keep the props within arm’s reach. Challenge each team to outdo the last with their poses. Turn it into a competition, or just let chaos reign. Either way, the energy you build beforehand carries into every chorus that follows.
And if you’re organising the night? Encourage the madness. Give people permission to go big before they go loud. Your event will have more heart, more laughs, and more unforgettable moments. That’s what makes it not just another company night out, but the night people talk about at every coffee break for weeks.
