Introduction

This is the result we'll create, an elegant lower third for a interview video, with a yellow accent growing, a dark panel sliding in from the left, then the name and title appearing letter by letter. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe After Effects series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. Module 14 covers motion graphics templates used daily. We start with the lower third, the name description at the bottom of the screen that is essential for interview and news videos.

Step 1: Safe Area

Create a composition from the interview footage and enable the title action safe from the grid button below the viewer. Place the lower third at the bottom left, within the safe area, and make sure it doesn't cover the interviewee's face.

Step 2: Panel and Accent

Press F2, create a dark rectangle named panel with 85% opacity, then a thin yellow rectangle named accent on its left edge. Move the anchor point of the panel to the left edge and the anchor point of the accent to the top edge, so both grow from the correct direction. Type the interviewee's name in bold white letters, then the title in regular yellow letters below it.

Step 3: Name and Title Text

Align the left side and make it parallel with the panel edge, with a generous distance from the accent.

Step 4: Panel Animation

On the accent, scale Y from 0 at 0.3 seconds to 100 at 0.6 seconds. On the panel, scale X from 0 at 0.5 seconds to 100 at 1 second. Select all keyframes and press F9. The accent appears first, then the panel slides in from the left. Go to 0.8 seconds, select the name text, then double-click the Fade Up Characters preset. At 1 second, apply Fade Upwards on the title. The text appears sequentially after the panel opens.

Step 6: Precompose and Preview

Select all four layers and pre-compose them into lower third. Now, one layer contains all the animation and is easy to move to other videos. Play the preview, the information appears neatly and professionally.

Done!

Done. We've used the safe area, created the panel and accent with anchor points on the edges, animated the scale with ease, applied text presets, and pre-composed into one package. In the next episode, we'll create a logo reveal. Need a promotional video, logo animation, motion graphics for social media, or visual effects for short films?
