What is Video Mode?

Explainer - What is Video Mode.png

Video Mode allows for longer-form captures: up to 15 seconds for Fiesta Plus subscribers or up to 120 seconds for Fiesta Pro subscribers.

Video captures also support audio recording to allow guests to record an audio message with their Video capture—such as birthday wishes, wedding greetings, or testimonials—depending on the event. 

For the best experience when capturing audio with Video captures, it is recommended to use a supported microphone for in-person events run on the Fiesta iOS App.

What To Know
Recording Audio

The Fiesta Software is able to record audio from Video captures utilizing either the iOS device's built-in microphone or an external microphone connected to the capture device—a Bluetooth microphone for iPad events, or a microphone connected to the Canon camera for DSLR events. Virtual events will use the default microphone of the device running the event. 

Note: Using the built-in microphone when an iOS device is in a booth may cause degraded recording quality due to fan noise and the location of the microphone.
