Why the Hotel Lobby video doesn't take pets
The Hotel Lobby trend recreates two people performing in the orange booth: hands, mic moves, a human mouth for the lip-sync. The template is built around a human body, so the AI reads any photo as a person. A dog photo gives it fur and a snout to turn into a human face, and the result looks like neither your dog nor a person you know.
What to use instead: Pet Rap Video
Pet Rap Video is made for animals. It keeps your pet an animal and gives it the rap:
- Photo 1 is your pet. A clear, front-facing photo with the eyes open.
- Photo 2 is the partner. Another pet, or a selfie of you, so you and your dog trade lines.
- Write a topic. "Rex turns 4, wants cake and a nap" gets you a birthday rap about Rex.
You get an original rap, lip-synced, in about 3 minutes. A standard 12-second 720p video is 10 credits, and a failed render is never charged.
Tips for a good pet rap video
- Face the camera. A pet looking away gives the AI half a face to work with.
- Eyes open, good light. Daylight from a window works best.
- One pet per photo. Use two photos for two pets.
- Dogs and cats are the most reliable. Rabbits and parrots can be tried.
The voice is an AI rap voice, not your pet's real bark.
