Hotel Lobby Video quality: 480p, 720p or 1080p

480p vs 720p vs 1080p comes down to where the duet will play: 480p for chats and test takes, 720p for Instagram Reels, 1080p for a TV or party screen. On Wan 3.0, 12 seconds cost 6 credits at 480p, 10 at 720p and 20 at 1080p. Resolution sets sharpness; nothing so far shows that it makes faces closer to the photos.

Pixel sizes below come from sample files made with the studio. The same take rendered at all three settings side by side is not published yet.

Higher settings take longer to come back. The editor quotes about 5 to 15 minutes on Wan 3.0; plan for more of that window as the resolution goes up.

What a sharper file cannot do

  • Fix likeness. A face that drifts at 480p is not known to come back at 1080p. Start with better portraits (best photos for Hotel Lobby AI).
  • Change the moves, the camera or the lip-sync.
  • Change refunds: a failed render is refunded whatever the setting.

A budget-friendly workflow

  1. Run a first take at 480p to see whether your portraits hold up.
  2. If a face drifts, swap the photo rather than raising the resolution.
  3. Once you like what you see, cut the keeper at 720p or 1080p for where it will be shown.

FAQ

Is 1080p worth the extra credits?

Only for a big screen. On a phone, 720p already clears Instagram’s Reels minimum, at 10 credits instead of 20 for 12 seconds.

I post to both TikTok and Reels. Which one setting covers both?

720p. Instagram wants at least 720 pixels at 30 fps, which a Wan 3.0 720p sample file meets (720 × 1280, 30 fps), and TikTok lists no stricter rule for normal posts.

Will 1080p make the face look more like my photo?

Nothing so far shows that. Resolution controls sharpness; likeness depends mostly on the portrait and changes from take to take.

Why is my 480p video only 480 pixels wide?

For a vertical take, that is what 480p means: a Wan 3.0 480p sample file measured 480 × 854.

Does a higher resolution take longer to render?

Yes. The editor quotes about 5 to 15 minutes on Wan 3.0, and a higher setting needs more of that time.

Can I upscale a 480p take to 1080p later?

Not in the studio. Each take is rendered at the setting you pick, so choose 1080p when you create if you need it.
