Nothing to film
One photo replaces the tripod, the green screen and the retakes.
No tripod, no masking
Clone Yourself in an AI Video
Hotel Lobby Video (hotel-lobby-video.com) clones you from one photo: you stand alone on an empty basketball court, then copies of you appear one by one until a full squad hits the same pose. 5 seconds at 720p is 4 credits.
- From a single photo
- Copies arrive one at a time
- 4 credits, 720p
- Two people can clone too

Why it is easier this way
How the AI clone video works
The old way to clone yourself on camera: lock a phone on a tripod, shoot one take per copy, then spend an evening masking the takes together. The Clones effect skips all of it. A Seedance model reads your photo and renders the whole scene: you in the middle of an empty court facing the camera, identical copies appearing around you, and finally the whole formation striking one pose.
Because the prompt asks the model to keep your face, hair and outfit, the photo you choose decides how convincing the copies look. Add a second photo, or one photo with both of you, and the copies are of the pair. The sound is ambient; there is no music track.

How to make a clone video of yourself
- 01
Pick a waist-up or full-length photo
Face the camera. The original background is thrown away, so any room or street is fine.
- 02
Leave Clones selected
It starts on Seedance 2.0 Mini, 720p, 5 seconds and 9:16. Adjust any of these and the button shows the new price.
- 03
Create and post
The provider quotes up to about 5 minutes. Save the MP4 now or later from My videos.
In the clip
A squad of you, minus the editing
Matching outfits
Each copy is meant to wear what you wear in the photo, so a bold color pops across the squad.
Duo mode
Two photos, or one of both of you, put the pair at the center of the formation.
Price on the button
4 credits for 5 seconds at 720p. More seconds or a sharper picture cost more; failed renders come back as credits.
Which photo makes the best clones
- A body, not just a face. Copies need arms and legs to pose with, so waist-up or head-to-toe works far better than a selfie crop.
- Eyes visible, light even, no sunglasses or hair over the face.
- A wide frame (16:9 or 21:9) fits more copies side by side; 9:16 suits Reels and TikTok.
Ideas for a clone clip
- Say hello on a new channel or to a new team: one of you is never enough.
- Roast the friend who does everything: planner, driver, snack supplier, all at once.
- Open a rap video of the same two people with a clone squad.
- A birthday post where every guest is the birthday person.
Limits to know
You cannot choose the number of copies, the setting or the pose; the effect always plays the court scene. For other one-photo scenes, browse the AI video effects, from an Earth zoom out to a hug.

How do I clone myself in a video with AI?
Upload one clear photo, keep Clones selected and tap create. The clip shows copies of you appearing one by one until the squad strikes a shared pose.
Is there a clone video app that works from one photo, no filming?
This runs in the browser on your phone or computer, and one photo is all it needs. No filming, green screen or app install.
Can I clone two people in the same video?
Yes. Add a photo of each person, or one photo with both of you.
What does an AI clone video cost?
5 seconds on Seedance 2.0 Mini at 720p is 4 credits. You spend credits at the moment you create (packs start at 10 credits for $9.99), and any render that fails gives them back on its own.
Can I pick how many clones appear?
No. The number of copies and the final pose are part of the effect.
Will the copies really look like me?
The model is asked to keep your face, hair and outfit from the photo. A sharp, front-facing picture gives the closest match.
