About this tool
Write entrance signage, ticket terms, PA and registration copy telling attendees an event is being filmed, with legible sign sizing.
An event photography notice is the wording that tells attendees, before their picture is taken, who is filming, what the footage will be used for and how to stay out of shot. This generator writes that wording for all five surfaces people actually read (ticket terms, registration form, entrance sign, PA script and event web page) and sizes the entrance sign using the wayfinding rule of roughly 25 mm of capital height per 3 metres of viewing distance. Built for event organisers, conference producers and venue marketing teams who need the notice up before doors open.

Ticket, form, sign, PA script and web page are generated from the same facts, so the notice does not contradict itself.
Cap height, point size and characters per line are calculated for your actual viewing distance and board width.
The copy names the lawful basis you selected and a working way to opt out, which is what a notice has to contain to count.
Not always, but you always need to tell them. General crowd and stage coverage at a ticketed event is commonly handled under legitimate interests (UK/EU GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)) with a clear notice and an objection route, while posed portraits, close-ups of identifiable individuals and anything used in paid advertising should have separate recorded consent.
About 25 mm of capital-letter height for every 3 metres of viewing distance is the accepted rule of thumb, and doubling that gives text people can read at a glance while walking. A sign read from 3 metres therefore wants roughly 50 mm capitals for the headline, which is about 197 point.
Around 11 words in a 3-second glance. Silent reading of English prose averages about 238 words per minute (Brysbaert's 2019 meta-analysis of 190 studies), so a doorway headline needs to land in under a dozen words with the detail carried on the ticket and web page.
Treat it as a separate, higher bar: keep a no-photo list at the registration desk, get written permission from a parent or guardian before any close-up or named use, and brief the photographer before doors open. Data protection regulators consistently treat children's images as needing extra protection, so take professional advice if children are a significant part of your audience.
