Tool Positioning
Pixo is an online AI video generation tool, and its core feature is the Hotel Lobby AI video template. According to its official website, users only need to upload two photos to get a video of two people singing together in an orange COLORS studio, with no prompt input and no green screen required, and it can be tried for free.
Main Capabilities
- Two-person photo replacement: The first photo corresponds to the performer on the left, and the second corresponds to the performer on the right. Friends, couples, pets, or even the same person appearing twice are all possible.
- Retains original audio: The generated video includes the original "Hotel Lobby" audio track and is edited according to the duration selected by the user.
- Templated performance recreation: The video follows the orange room, hanging microphones, camera cuts, and movements of the two performers from the original COLORS clip.
- Multiple durations: Choose from 5 seconds, 10 seconds, or 15 seconds.
- Resolution and models: The Seedance model renders at 720p here, while selecting MiniMax H3 provides 1080p; the output is in a 16:9 horizontal composition, framed like the original studio performance.
- Download and publish: After generation is complete, you can download an MP4 with the original audio for TikTok, Instagram Reels, or YouTube Shorts.
How to Use
- Choose two photos: one clear photo per person; photo 1 becomes the performer on the left, and photo 2 becomes the performer on the right.
- Upload: Place the photos into the two corresponding slots, choose a duration of 5, 10, or 15 seconds, then click generate.
- Download and publish: Most videos are generated within a few minutes; download the MP4 with the original audio and publish it. You can leave the page during generation, and the result will appear in "My videos."
Photo Recommendations
- Put only one person in each photo, facing the camera.
- Half-body or full-body photos with clearly visible faces.
- Even frontal lighting and a simple background.
- Clothing will carry over into the video, so choose the outfit you want to appear in the video. Not recommended: group photos or two faces in one image; wearing sunglasses, masks, or hands covering the face; selfies that are too small, blurry, or heavily filtered.
Use Cases
The official website lists a variety of common uses: duo combinations with group chat friends, anniversary videos, family versions, pets (the trend originally started with cats, and dogs also work), original or hand-drawn characters, and using the same photo to have yourself perform on stage with yourself.
Pricing and Free Quota

Background and restrictions

Takeoff passed away in November 2022, and the official website reminds users to keep videos respectful.
Regarding usage restrictions: photos are only used to generate videos and will not be publicly displayed on the website; photos of children may only be used by guardians; when publishing, the platform requires disclosure of AI-generated content, and the AI label should be enabled; only photos of consenting participants may be used.
