A Hollywood-Themed Awards Night to Remember

On Wednesday, March 25, 2026, Northfield Bank hosted its Annual Awards Dinner at Nicotra’s Ballroom at the Hilton Garden Inn, bringing together approximately 315 employees for a night of celebration, recognition, and immersive entertainment.

The theme? Hollywood glamour.

From the moment guests arrived, the atmosphere felt like stepping onto a red carpet premiere. Between a high-energy Glambot experience by Snapped Society, live dancers in themed costumes, and celebrity impersonators including Taylor Swift and Marilyn Monroe, the event delivered a full-scale entertainment experience.

But one activation stood out above the rest.

The Main Attraction: AI Sketch Robots in Action

At the center of the excitement were four AI Sketch Robots paired with two high-efficiency capture stations, creating a seamless and engaging guest experience.

The process was simple and captivating:

  1. Guests stepped up for a quick photo
  2. They selected their preferred Hollywood-themed art style
  3. The AI transformed their image into a custom sketch
  4. A robotic arm physically drew the artwork in real time
  5. A digital copy was instantly sent to their phone via text

This combination of cutting-edge technology and tangible output created something rare in corporate events: an experience that was both interactive and deeply personal.

Guests didn’t just watch it happen. They became part of it.

Delivering 178 Custom Sketches in Just 2.5 Hours

With only a 2.5-hour window, efficiency was critical.

The result:

  • 178 custom sketches completed
  • Continuous lines throughout the night
  • A steady, fast-moving workflow that kept guests engaged

Despite the high demand, the system handled volume smoothly. Lines moved quickly, and guests remained excited rather than frustrated, which is a key factor in successful large-scale activations.

This level of throughput highlights one of the biggest advantages of AI-powered entertainment. It scales effortlessly while maintaining quality and consistency.

9 Hollywood-Themed Art Styles That Drove Engagement

One of the biggest drivers of engagement was the ability for guests to choose from nine fully customized art styles, each designed to match the Hollywood theme:

  • Old Hollywood (Gatsby / 1920s)
  • Red Carpet Spotlight
  • Banker on Set
  • Bank Vault
  • Oscar-Winning Banker
  • Money Rocket
  • Hollywood Walk of Fame
  • Paparazzi Flash Moment
  • Classic Hollywood Glam Portrait

This level of personalization encouraged participation and even repeat visits, as guests were eager to try different styles and see themselves reimagined in multiple ways.

Fully Customized Branding That Guests Took Home

Beyond entertainment, the sketches served as powerful branded keepsakes.

Each print included:

  • A custom header featuring the event branding
  • A personalized footer design featuring the Northfield Bank logo
  • A fully branded back of the print

These weren’t just souvenirs. They were take-home experiences that extended the event’s impact well beyond the ballroom.

With both a physical sketch and a digital version sent instantly to their phones, guests left with something memorable, shareable, and uniquely theirs.
