Hotel Lobby AI Photo Tips: Better Faces in the Orange Booth

Practical photo tips for Hotel Lobby AI: lighting, framing, pets and characters, same person in both roles, and what to avoid before you spend a video credit.

Better source photos usually mean a clearer Hotel Lobby AI result. Migos AI maps each upload onto a locked two-person performance, so identity depends heavily on what you feed each slot.

Ideal photo checklist

  • One clear subject per photo
  • Face (or head) mostly toward the camera
  • Even lighting; avoid heavy shadows across the face
  • Minimal occlusion from sunglasses, masks, or hands
  • Reasonable resolution (not a tiny crop)
  • File type: JPG, PNG, or WebP, up to 10 MB

Left vs right performer

Upload separate images for left and right. Distinct references help the model keep both identities. You can still cast the same person twice — use two different photos of that person.

Pets, characters, and playful pairings

Pets and stylized characters are common in this trend. Prefer:

  • A single subject filling most of the frame
  • A recognizable head/face region
  • A multi-angle character sheet when the head turns during the performance

Always upload media you have permission to use, and respect the rights of people depicted.

What usually hurts results

  • Group photos with several faces in one slot
  • Extreme filters, heavy beauty blur, or tiny faces
  • Side profiles only, or faces cut off at the edge
  • Screenshots of screens with glare and low detail

Before you generate

  1. Confirm both slots look sharp in the create UI.
  2. Make sure you have a video credit ($8 one video, or $16 for three).
  3. Expect about 10–20 minutes of generation time.
