How To Create A Snapchat Filter For An Event
Personal Experience
As an event planner, I know how important it is to create a memorable experience for guests. One way to do that is by creating a custom Snapchat filter for the event. I recently organized a charity event where we created a Snapchat filter that was a huge hit among the attendees. It not only added a fun element to the event but also helped in promoting the cause on social media.
What is a Snapchat Filter?
Snapchat filters are digital overlays that can be added to photos and videos on the Snapchat app. They can be customized for different events, occasions, and locations. Creating a Snapchat filter for an event can add a unique touch to the celebration and make it more memorable.
Steps to Create a Snapchat Filter for an Event
Step 1: Design the Filter
The first step is to design the filter. You can use online tools like Canva or Adobe Spark to create a design that matches the theme of your event. Make sure to keep the design simple and eye-catching.
Step 2: Choose the Event Location
Snapchat filters can be customized for specific locations. Choose the location of your event and set a geofence for the filter. This will ensure that the filter is available only in the designated area.

Select the date and time for the filter to be available. Make sure to set the duration of the filter to cover the entire event.

Snapchat charges a fee for creating a custom filter. The fee depends on the location and duration of the filter. Make sure to pay the fee before the event to ensure that the filter is available on time.
