Cat & dog
The classic odd couple, and the same pairing as the studio example above — a godfather cat beside a bully dog. Contrast in species and temperament is what makes the two slots read as a duet.
Hotel Lobby AI Pets: Cast Your Cat or Dog in the Booth
The hotel lobby AI trend does not stop at people. Two pet photos — one per performer — are all the studio needs to stage a ten-second rap duet in the orange booth. Below: example references that work, how to prepare your own, what a video costs, and what to check before you post.

Example pet references
The example duet playing in the studio above was generated from the two reference photos shown below — one performer per photo, left slot and right slot. They show the pattern that works: one clear subject per image, visible eyes and ears, even light, and a silhouette that stays distinct from the other side.
Left performer
Right performer
- One animal per photo. Two subjects in one frame leaves the studio nothing to cast on the empty slot.
- Face toward the camera with eyes and ears in frame — the duet reads through expressions.
- Even light and a simple background keep fur edges clean once the subject starts moving.
- Contrast sells the joke: different species, sizes or colors make the two-slot format obvious.
- Stylized or dressed-up references work too — expect the video to follow their look.
How to make a hotel lobby AI pet video
1.Pick two photos
One pet per photo, in the style you want on screen. Decide now which side each performer takes — the left slot raps first.
2.Upload to the Studio
Use the studio at the top of this page: drop the left photo into the left slot and the right photo into the right slot, then check the preview order before continuing.
3.Choose format and quality
Every clip runs 10 seconds. Pick 16:9 for landscape or 9:16 for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. Basic covers 768P and 2K; Premium goes up to 1080P.
4.Review the full clip
Watch all ten seconds with sound before downloading. If a generation fails, the credits are refunded automatically.
A pet video costs the same as any duet: Basic 768P is 80 credits and 2K is 130; Premium 480p is 170, 720p is 380, and 1080p is 950. See credit packs Read the step-by-step guide
Pet duet casting ideas
Any pairing works as long as each photo holds one subject. These four combinations are where the booth format gets funny.
Two cats
Deadpan on both sides. Ear flicks and tail movement carry the clip when neither performer cracks.
Two dogs
High energy on both microphones. Breeds with different fur lengths or colors read most clearly in motion.
Pet & owner
One human photo, one pet photo — the original format's hierarchy flipped for comedy. Keep both faces at a similar distance from the camera.
Check the clip before you post
- Markings stay consistent from the first frame to the last.
- Eyes and ears look natural throughout — motion is where artifacts show first.
- Bodies and paws stay on their own side of the microphone.
- The whole ten seconds plays cleanly with sound before you download.
Pet video FAQ
Only upload photos you own or have permission to use — that includes your own pets and anything generated with tools that allow it.
Does Hotel Lobby AI work with pets?
Yes. The studio casts each uploaded photo as one performer, and a pet can hold either slot — both sides, or one pet beside a person. What the animals do in the clip depends on the model, so review the result before posting rather than expecting a fixed performance.
Do the photos have to be real pets?
No. Real photos, stylized portraits and illustrated characters all work as references. The generated video tends to follow the style of what you upload, so pick two photos that share a look.
How much does a pet video cost?
The same as any video on the site: Basic 768P costs 80 credits and 2K costs 130; Premium 480p is 170, 720p is 380, and 1080p is 950. Every clip runs 10 seconds, and failed generations refund their credits.
Which pet goes on the left?
Your choice — the left slot appears on the left of the frame and takes the first verse. Contrast between the two sides is what makes the pairing read, so put the two most different performers opposite each other.
What photo format and size should I use?
PNG, JPEG or WebP, up to 15MB per photo, one animal per image. Sharp, evenly lit photos with the face in frame give the model the most to work with.
Can I post the video on TikTok?
Yes. Generate in 9:16 for a vertical fit, download the MP4 — the COLORS performance music is included — and upload it to TikTok, Reels or Shorts. The sharing walkthrough covers the steps.
