After the video processes, you can enter your email address and choose to have your video featured in the public online gallery. The video will be sent a few days later along with a confirmation that the video will appear in the online gallery, if you selected that option. Below, I’ve included a couple of videos done at the standee. Note: The second video is NSFW as it contains some strong language.You don’t have to visit a movie theater to make a video anymore!
