Slo Mo Mode
Slo-Mo is a Capture Mode exclusive to the Guac Booth that records a short video at 120 frames per second, and then slows it down to create a slow-motion effect.
In order to enable Slo-Mo Mode, certain settings need to be adjusted manually on the camera inside of Guac.
Once the event is over and you no longer need Slo-Mo Mode, it is recommended to restore the original camera settings before the next event.
