Add one clear, front-facing photo for each person.
JPG, PNG or WebP · Up to 10 MB each
Choose one photo for each performer and place them in the left and right upload slots. Use clear, front-facing portraits with one visible face per image. A half-body or full-body picture can work when the face remains easy to see. Similar lighting and camera angles help the pair look consistent. Use photos you have permission to animate, in JPG, PNG or WebP format, no larger than 10 MB each.
Choose Hotel Lobby, Luxury lobby, Recording studio or Street cypher. Video settings control the model, duration, aspect ratio and resolution. In Sound and motion, use a template reference or crop your own motion video. Wan supports the template soundtrack, your song or clip audio; Seedance creates original AI rap from an optional topic. Review the displayed credit cost before generating.
Sign in with Google and check that your account has enough credits before submitting. A five-second Wan template video at 480p uses 15 credits; new accounts start with no credits, so purchase a credit pack before generating. Follow the upload, generation and review status shown in the tool. Once the video is completed and approved, preview and download it. Processing time varies with the selected settings, the service queue and review, so allow time for the full process.
The Hotel Lobby AI video trend turns two image references into a short, coordinated duo performance in an orange studio booth. Its recognizable visual ingredients are the warm background, a hanging microphone and two performers sharing the frame. The reference is Quavo and Takeoff’s Hotel Lobby performance on COLORS, published in 2022; the AI format reimagines that setting with different people.
People use the hotel lobby trend to pair friends, partners or collaborators in a playful music-video scene. In this generator, you provide a separate photo for each person and choose the output format. The tool supplies the scene instructions, so you do not need to describe lighting, staging or camera movement yourself.
The result is newly generated footage, with movement and visual details that can vary. It is not an exact copy of the original performance or a guarantee of matching its choreography. Use images you have permission to animate, review the finished clip, and add any separately licensed soundtrack in your own editor if needed.

FAQ
Direct answers about photos, credits, templates and generation.
No. Registration does not include free credits. Purchase a credit pack before generating. A five-second Wan template video at 480p needs 15 credits. You can browse the template, instructions and reference videos for free. Check the displayed generation cost and the pricing page before purchasing.
Upload one clear photo for each performer, select a stage and video settings, then choose the sound and motion. You can keep the template references or crop your own audio and video in the browser. For original AI rap, choose Seedance and optionally enter a topic. Sign in and generate with credits, then preview and download after generation and review.
Use two separate, clear photos with one front-facing person in each image. Similar lighting, visible faces and uncropped heads give the model better visual references. Half-body or full-body shots are useful when the face is still large enough to recognize. Avoid heavy filters, sunglasses, motion blur and crowded group pictures. This tool accepts JPG, PNG and WebP files up to 10 MB per photo.
No. The visual reference is the 2022 Hotel Lobby performance by Quavo and Takeoff on COLORS. AI versions only borrow the two-person, orange-booth format and put new performers in it. This is an independent creation tool, with no affiliation or endorsement implied, and generated clips do not reproduce the original song or performance.
Yes. Scene instructions are built in, so a general prompt is not required. Choose from four stages, upload two photos and set the video format. Upload a motion clip to guide the performance, or use the template reference. Seedance can create original AI rap from an optional topic. There is no separate camera-path or lyric editor.
Generation time varies, and there is no guaranteed completion time in seconds. Uploading the photos, reviewing the inputs, generating the clip and reviewing the output all contribute to the wait. The tool shows the current stage while your task is processing. Preset lengths are 5, 8, 10, 12 and 15 seconds; a cropped motion reference can set a shorter length. These are video lengths, not processing-time promises. Preview and download become available only after the video is completed and approved.
No, this tool uses one separate photo for each of the two performers. Add the first person to the left slot and the second person to the right slot; the generated scene brings them together. If you start from a shared photo, prepare two individual crops with clear faces before uploading. Matching lighting helps, but it is not necessary for the photos to have been taken together.
A Hotel Lobby AI video generates a new duo performance from your two image references, while a conventional face swap replaces a face in existing footage. This tool aims to create the scene, movement and appearance together, so details can vary between runs. It is not a frame-by-frame recreation of a source video. A motion reference can guide the performance, but the generated result is not guaranteed to preserve every source frame.
These clips were generated with this tool. Results vary with your photos, model and settings.
