Name
A name title tells viewers who is speaking and why to listen. On bright footage, a solid dark card keeps it readable without hiding the speaker.
What makes it work
| Habit | Why it works |
|---|---|
| Name first | The name is the largest line |
| Role in a few words | "Halden run club coach" beats a full job title |
| Lower left | Out of the way of the speaker's face |
| Show it once | Early in their first appearance, for about five seconds |
| Contrast | Dark card for bright footage, glowing border for dark footage |
Make one with Dark Card Lower Third
Dark Card Lower Third is a free, open-source HyperFrames block. A charcoal card lower third slides up with a name, a drawn accent underline and a role, made for bright footage. Ask your agent:
Make a dark card lower third for "Lena Hart", "Halden run club coach", over our dawn street running shot.It renders a 4.8-second lower third with a transparent background.
