How to Edit a Hotel Lobby AI Video Before Sharing
Edit a completed clip after checking its characters and soundtrack. Keep an untouched copy, make the smallest changes your post needs, then watch the exported file. Editing can improve presentation; cropping or adding captions will not repair every identity change or make an unsuitable voice fit the scene.
New generation and credit purchases are currently coming soon. This guide applies to videos you already have. Existing completed results remain available in Your videos; Pricing shows the current purchase status.
Start with a completed file
Confirm that the task is finished and the video is available to download. If the site is still processing or saving it, check that task again instead of creating another one. A browser timeout alone does not mean the render failed.
Watch the downloaded clip from start to finish. Compare the people with your references and check their positions during movement. Use the character swap troubleshooting guide if you notice a changing face, reversed role or unexpected voice before you spend time editing.
Keep both characters inside the frame
Choose your post’s canvas shape in an editor, then preview the whole clip within it. A tight crop that looks good at the opening may cut off a hand, a face or the hanging microphone later.
When the source and canvas shapes differ, compare fitting the complete frame with cropping the sides. Leave room for the destination app’s visible interface and for any text you add. Avoid enlarging a low-resolution source more than necessary: exporting at a larger size does not create missing detail.
Decide what the audience should hear
Listen with headphones or speakers. The template supplies the soundtrack; swapping photos does not change the singer’s voice to match a new character. A companion may move with the rhythm while another character performs.
If you add a second audio track, check that it does not unintentionally play over the existing one. Adjust or mute a track deliberately, then listen again. Use audio you have permission to publish under the relevant platform and account terms; an editor’s export button does not establish those permissions.
Add readable text and review the export
Keep captions brief and away from faces. Preview them at a phone-sized view, with enough contrast against the orange background. If you transcribe lyrics or speech, check the words manually instead of assuming an automatic transcript is correct.
After exporting, replay that file, not only the editor timeline. Check the first frame, ending, audio level, caption timing and both characters’ visibility. Then prepare the post. For better inputs next time, read the photo guide; the guides index links the complete workflow.
