Save a shot for midnight
Tell everyone beforehand: keep one photo back for midnight. Otherwise the film’s full before the fireworks start.

The digital disposable camera for your New Year’s Eve party.
At midnight everyone holds their phone up – and by New Year’s Day nobody can find the photos. With Filmriss every shot of the night lands on one shared film. The gallery opens on the first day of the new year.
- Guests don’t need an app
- Original quality
- 90-day gallery
How it works · New Year’s Eve
Three steps, zero effort on the day itself.
Create the event
In the app: name, cover, photos per guest. Set the reveal for New Year’s Day.
Snap through the night
Guests scan the code and take photos in their browser. No preview – so more fireworks, less screen.
Develop on New Year’s Day
On 1 January the gallery opens. The best start to the new year: reliving last night all over again.
You choose when the reveal happens – by default it’s 10 am the morning after.
Photo ideas for your guests
Ten frames for New Year’s Eve.
Put them on the table card, in the invitation or announce them on the day.
- The countdown, shot from behind
- The first kiss or hug of the year
- The party games – or what’s left of them
- A face lit by a sparkler
- The sky at 00:01
- The glasses of fizz just before the toast
- A guest writing down their resolutions
- The crowd out on the balcony
- The cheese board, nearly finished
- The first breakfast of the year
Tips
Well prepared, relaxed on the day.
More photos for a long night
New Year’s Eve goes on. 15 to 20 photos per guest works well, so they last until morning.
Reveal on New Year’s afternoon
Not at 10 am: on 1 January, the afternoon is the best time to look back at the night.

Can I set the reveal for New Year’s Day?
Yes. You choose the time when you set things up. The default is 10 am the next day – for New Year’s Eve, the afternoon is a better bet.
What if the network’s overloaded at midnight?
The camera saves photos on the phone and uploads them as soon as there’s a connection again. Just make sure it’s open beforehand.
Do my guests need the app?
No. The QR code opens the camera in their browser, no account needed.
As the host, do I see the photos first?
No. Nobody sees a single shot before the reveal – not even you.
How long do the photos stay?
90 days after the reveal. After that they’re deleted automatically.
