How to Make a Hotel Lobby AI Video in 3 Simple Steps

This tutorial shows how to make a Hotel Lobby AI video—the orange-booth duet rap clip people share on TikTok, Reels, and Shorts. You will use the homepage duet studio; no editing timeline required.

Quick answer

To make a Hotel Lobby AI video, open hotellobby-ai.co, upload two portraits into the homepage duet studio, keep the orange booth preset, choose 5–15 seconds, click Generate video, preview the result, and download the MP4. New users receive 10 trial credits, usually enough for one standard 480p, 5-second test clip.

Before you start

• Two portraits (left and right performer)—see best photos for Hotel Lobby AI.
• A free account (email or OAuth)—10 trial credits cover one standard clip.
• Realistic expectations: AI motion varies; plan 2–3 generations for a keeper.

Step 1 — Upload two photos

On the Hotel Lobby AI generator:

1. Person 1 (left) — choose a clear, front-facing image.
2. Person 2 (right) — same rules; avoid mixing heavy filters between the two.
3. Use Swap left ↔ right if the framing looks wrong before you generate.

Supported formats: JPG, PNG, WebP, up to 10 MB each. One visible face per image works best.

Step 2 — Choose duration and resolution

The orange booth template is already applied—you do not need to write a prompt for the default duet look.

| Setting | Typical use | | ---------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Duration | 5–15 seconds — shorter for memes, longer for a fuller “verse” feel | | Resolution | 480p saves credits; higher tiers use more credits per clip | | Aspect ratio | Vertical presets match Shorts/Reels |

The UI shows cost in credits and remaining balance before you confirm. Buy more on pricing if needed.

Step 3 — Generate, preview, and download

1. Click Generate video (sign in if prompted).
2. Wait while status updates—queue time spikes at peak hours.
3. Play the result in the preview player; download when satisfied.
4. Re-generate with different photos or settings if faces drift or motion feels off.

Optional: image-to-video or text-to-video

The homepage flow is optimized for two-person booth casting. For a single reference image or a custom written scene, open:

• Image to video — animate one still.
• Text to video — describe camera and action in words.

Those routes share the same credit wallet as the duet studio.

Sharing and rights

Before you post:

• Get permission from everyone recognizable in the source photos.
• Disclose AI when the clip could be mistaken for a real performance.
• Do not use real artist names or trademarks to imply endorsement—see Migos AI search guide for common mistakes.

Troubleshooting

| Issue | Fix | | -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Generate disabled | Upload both portraits. | | “Not enough credits” | Buy credits or use a shorter/cheaper tier. | | Blurry faces | Retake with better light; read photo guide. | | Failed job | Retry; check generation history for error details. |
