Watch the animation a couple times in the preview window. Once you have your keyframes in the timeline, highlight all of them and right click. Often, clips of b-roll or interview go by so quickly in a video that it would be distracting to focus too much on having things flying in and out of the screen. In most cases, a lower third just ends abruptly when the clip ends-no need to animate off. DonвЂ™t feel like doing that much more work? DonвЂ™t worry. Just copy the same keyframes in a reverse order at the end of the clip.

If you would like, you can have the lower third leave the screen in the same manner in which it arrived. Optional: animate the elements off-screen.I made the animation 3 seconds instead of 2.

Both of the boxes swing in from the left and the text types itself using the typewriter effect.

To have the text fade in: Set two keyframes for opacity: one for 0% at 1 second, and one for 100% at 2 seconds.ДЄbove is an example of the animation I created.

Move them so that the animation lasts from 1 second to 2 seconds.

To have the text вЂњtypeвЂќ in: In the effects panel, search for вЂњtypewriter.вЂќ Drag it onto your text layer and press the вЂњUвЂќ key on the keyboard to see the default animation keyframes.

Set their positions so that the thin lines start at the вЂњtopвЂќ of where they should end up. At second 0, set both of their scale y-values to 0.

To have the boxes вЂњunfoldвЂќ down: In the transform options for both rectangles, unclick the вЂњlinkвЂќ beside вЂњscale.вЂќ At second 1, the scale should be 100% and the position should be where you want them to be.

If you have multiple boxes, stagger their entrances so that it doesnвЂ™t look like one fixed object.

To bring boxes in from the side: With the playhead at 0, drag both rectangles off-screen and set a position keyframe.

You can adjust this for a customized effect. As a general rule, have the shapes animate in the first second and the text animate in the next second.

Here are some options, but feel free to create your own using keyframes and effects. There are endless methods for bringing elements into the screen. This will lock all of the objects in the place where you want them to end up after the quick, 2-second animation is complete. On one of them, click the stopwatches next to position, scale, and opacity. To begin, move the playhead to 2 seconds and highlight all of your layers. The goal is to start with every element off the screen or invisible in some way and finish with everything ending up in place.

Lock the elements in their final positions first.

The shape is just two bars, each fitting the length of the text. For this tutorial, I decided to do a simple lower third with my name, title, and a plain color background. For inspiration, watch your favorite videos or search for examples online.

If you have a more complex vision, you can design assets in Adobe Illustrator and bring them in as. (If youвЂ™re making a template to use multiple times, itвЂ™s best practice to use the longest name/title/location as your example, just to make sure everything will fit.) This bubbly style is more simple, suited toward a YouTube video or workplace advertisement. Draw shapes using the rectangle and circle tools (or the pen). Have an idea for how you want your lower third to look? Get started by designing it with your video on pause.

Design your lower third, but donвЂ™t worry about making it вЂњmoveвЂќ yet.

Whether youвЂ™re trying to do a basic text overlay or get a little more fancy with background graphics, colored shapes, and moving parts, this tutorial will introduce you to the basics of animated lower thirds.

You might recognize a lower third as the name below an interview subject on a reality TV show, the title of a story on a news broadcast, or the social media handle that appears beside a guest on a YouTube video. вЂњLower thirdsвЂќ is the word editors use to describe the text in a video, often represented in a graphic shape and placed in the bottom 30% of the screen (as the name implies).
