A lower third is a graphic overlay placed in the lower third of the screen, generally containing a person’s name and title. Lower thirds are commonly used in news broadcasts, weather reports, and sports broadcasts. They can also be used to introduce a guest on a talk show or to provide other information about a person on-screen.
There are a few different ways to create a lower third in Canva. The first way is to use the Lower Thirds templates.
To do this, click on the “Templates” tab and then select “Lower Thirds.” You will then be able to browse through a variety of different lower third designs. Once you find one you like, click on it and then edit the text to personalize it for your needs.
Another way to create a lower third in Canva is to use the Text tool. To do this, click on the “Text” tab and then select the “Add Heading” option.
Enter the text you want for your lower third into the box that appears. You can then use the options in the toolbar to format your text, such as by changing the font or alignment. Once you’re happy with how your lower third looks, click on the “Download” button to save it as an image file.
The last way to create a lower third in Canva is to use one of the shapes available under the “Shapes” tab. To do this, click on the “Shapes” tab and then select the shape you want to use for your lower third.
Once you have placed your shape on the canvas, you can add text by clicking on the “Text” tab and then selecting the “Add Heading” option. As with before, you can use the options in the toolbar to format your text as desired. When you’re finished, click on the “Download” button to save your lower third as an image file.
