About the X Follow (Lower Third) animation

This X lower third is useful for interviews, Spaces recaps and quoted commentary. Bring it on with the person's introduction, check the handle character by character and use the follower line only if it adds meaningful context. The format sits naturally alongside broadcast-style name graphics.

Where it fits

  • In an interview, naming the guest's X handle when they are introduced.
  • In a Space recap, crediting each speaker as their clip plays.
  • Under quoted commentary, so the source can be found later.

Filling it in

Check the handle character by character, since a single wrong letter sends people to someone else. Use the follower line only when it adds context; for a journalist or an analyst it usually does not. The button can read FOLLOW or simply stay as a label.

Format and timing

X Follow (Lower Third) is built at 640 × 360, a 16:9 landscape frame, the shape of a YouTube video, a stream layout and most editing timelines, and runs 3 seconds at 30 frames per second. It arrives in 0.9 seconds, holds for 1.3 and clears in 0.9, so cue it a beat before the moment it labels. Export it as an MP4 for a timeline or a feed, a GIF where video will not embed, or a MOV with an alpha channel to lay it over footage with nothing behind it. Renders go up to 4K, and the free plan exports at 720p with a watermark.

Questions about X Follow (Lower Third)

Does it work alongside a name lower third?

Yes, in sequence. Bring the name in first, let it clear, then this one with the handle. Stacking both at once crowds the bottom of the frame.

Can I drop the follower count entirely?

Leave the counter at zero or clear it and the line sits empty. The handle and button still land, and the layout closes up without a gap.
