Reference preview · Upload two photos to generate
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.
The orange-booth duo template is already built into this generator, so there is no separate template picker or prompt box. Choose an aspect ratio, a five-, ten- or fifteen-second duration, and 480p or 720p resolution. Use 9:16 for a vertical short or 16:9 for a landscape clip. Review the credit cost beside the Generate button; changing the duration or resolution changes the number of credits required.
Sign in with Google and check that your account has enough credits before submitting. The least expensive video uses 50 credits; new accounts receive 10 welcome credits once, which is not enough for a video. 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. New accounts receive 10 welcome credits once, which is not enough for a video. The lowest-cost video needs 50 credits for five seconds at 480p. Generation requires enough remaining or purchased credits. You can browse the template, instructions and reference videos for free. Check the displayed generation cost and the pricing page before deciding whether to add credits to your account.
Upload one clear photo for each performer, choose your video settings, then sign in and generate with credits. The Hotel Lobby style scene is built into the tool, so you do not need to write a prompt or assemble the two people in an editor. Wait for generation and review to finish, then preview and download the completed video from your account.
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.
People often use both names for the two-person, orange-booth performance format. The visual reference is the Hotel Lobby performance by Quavo and Takeoff on COLORS; the search phrase Migos AI video describes AI-made variations of that look. This is an independent creation tool, with no affiliation or endorsement implied. Generated clips do not include a promise to reproduce the original song or performance exactly.
Yes, this generator builds the scene instructions for you, so there is no prompt to type. You supply the two photos and choose aspect ratio, duration and resolution. The template aims for an orange booth, a hanging microphone and a coordinated duo performance. There is no separate control for custom camera movement or choreography; use a general-purpose editor if you need to direct those details yourself.
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. Five, ten and fifteen seconds are the available 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 face-swap or motion-transfer editor may suit you better when preserving exact source choreography matters.
