The performance behind the effect
Two voices in the frame
Give each performer a clear turn at the microphone. A lead delivery followed by the partner’s reaction makes the duo readable even in a short clip.
An orange performance booth
A simple orange backdrop, hanging microphone and clear face lighting keep attention on expression and rhythm. Leave enough space for shoulders and hands to move.
A groove that connects the pair
Head nods, shoulder bounce and compact hip-hop steps connect the two performers. Repeated movement should feel like one continuous groove as the lead changes.
How the performance builds
Find the groove together
Start with both performers and the hanging microphone visible. A shared bounce introduces the pulse before either person takes the lead.
Pass the lead
The first performer delivers while the second reacts, then the attention switches. Watch that the same reference identity stays attached to each role.
Finish as a duo
Bring both people into the closing groove. Their faces and hands should remain separate when the composition becomes closer.

Portraits supply identity references, not a motion recording
This effect starts from one person in each of two separate portraits. The video provider interprets the portrait references together with this studio’s scene recipe. Two-person scenes keep the references separate rather than requiring a collage. The flow does not upload a choreography video or let you direct frame-by-frame motion.
Recognizable likeness, coherent clothes and natural anatomy are requested, but they require review in the finished result. A pleasing opening frame cannot demonstrate that the rest of the clip is stable. Watch changes of angle, lighting and distance, plus any interaction between subjects and objects.
The preset asks for rap delivery, expressive mouth movement and hip-hop rhythm. It generates a new performance; it does not clone the subjects’ real voices or reproduce a specific commercial recording. Review audio and movement together in the completed clip.
Where the scene can fit
A rap duo reveal
Introduce a creative pair with a short exchange and a shared finish. Leave room in the final edit for your artist names or announcement.
A vertical performance post
Use 9:16 for a phone feed or choose a wider frame to show more movement. Check how captions and the platform interface overlap the performers.
A music-video concept
Explore a two-person performance idea before planning a shoot. The generated delivery and body language can help communicate the intended energy to a creative team.
Before you start
Use source images and likenesses you have permission to submit. Choose your portraits and a 10- or 15-second duration. The generator displays the credit cost before you start.
Packages add credits to your account, with the equivalent video time shown on each card. Combine the two clip lengths as you like; unused credits remain available. If your balance covers fewer than 10 seconds, add a package before starting another clip. Check an existing task before making another paid request if its response was uncertain.
Questions before you start
What does Hotel Lobby mean here?
It names the rap-performance trend: two performers, a hanging microphone, an orange studio and a back-and-forth groove. You can start from ordinary portraits.
Will the performers rap and move to the beat?
The scene requests original rap delivery, expressive mouth movement and hip-hop rhythm. Exact lyrics, mouth timing and choreography depend on the generated result; it does not copy a particular song or a person’s real voice.
What is the video format?
Choose 10 or 15 seconds and one of six aspect ratios. The default is a 10-second vertical clip. Your account balance is in credits, with 54 credits used per video second.
