Hotel Lobby

How to play it

Recreate Hotel Lobby as the named play. Skip extra effects that are not part of the format.

1. 01

   Walk a straight line

   Camera fixed at chest height, pointed down the lobby. You walk toward it. Do not pan and do not follow yourself with the phone.

2. 02

   Keep the pace even

   Same step length the whole way. The outfit swap has to land on a footfall or the clothes will slide against the marble.

3. 03

   Swap halfway

   Replace the clothes and warm the practical lights about halfway to the desk. One swap, same stride, same hand on the bag.

4. 04

   Hold at the desk

   Stop, face the desk, and hold the new coat long enough to read the caption. That still is the cover.

Examples

Three ways the same 9s structure shows up. Match the setup, then use your own face and room.

• Marble noon

  Pale stone, a tee that becomes a darker coat at the midpoint. Piano only, nine seconds, stop at the desk. The camera never moves.

  Caption · checked in under a better coat

• Night practicals

  Amber lamps already on. The swap warms them a stop and changes the jacket while the stride stays the same.

  Caption · late checkout, better wool

• Revolving door

  Enter through the door in the first second, swap in the middle of the hall, and hold on the bell. One locked angle for the whole walk.

How to generate and export

1. 01Cut about 9 seconds at 1080×1920, 30 fps. Keep the camera locked and burn the caption in on the held last frame.
2. 02Export H.264 with a slow piano loop under the room tone. No lyrics and no beat drop.
3. 03Then use the render block on this page. The file stays in the browser, the pay step is a Waffo stub, and Generate returns a mock job id.

$1.99 USD is the listed price. The block below keeps the file in this browser, unlocks with a Waffo stub, and queues a mock generate job.
