Lower third — two bars
A name bar wipes in from one side and a role bar in the accent from the other, the words rising inside their bars.
Lower third — mask reveal
Cardless: an accent sweep crosses the frame and leaves the name behind it, then the role fades up. Made for footage.
Lower third — kicker
A kicker tag in the accent, a heavy name and a baseline that draws under it, the role beneath. Cardless, for footage.
Lower third — pill
A rounded pill with a picture or initials, a status dot, the name and the role. Pops in; good for podcasts and calls.
Lower third — news boxes
Broadcast style: a tight headline box with a hard accent shadow, a sub-line box beneath and an optional tag above.
News ticker
A crawl along the bottom: a label block in the accent and a line of items scrolling left without a break.
