What Is a Lower Third Graphic?

A lower third is a bar at the bottom of the picture that shows a name, a title or a caption.

The short answer

A lower third slides in with a name or title and shows for a few seconds. Streamdzy’s lower third extension shows for eight seconds, controlled from the app or your phone.

How to do it in Streamdzy

  1. Read the definition, then find the same word in Streamdzy: under Settings, in the scene, or on the Go live screen.
  2. Try it in a short test recording or a private stream, so the word means something you have seen.
  3. Read the feature page for it to see the settings, then set it up for your show.
  4. Check the pricing page for how use is counted. Every feature is free.

What to know first

Definitions are general; platforms and tools set their own limits and names, so check each platform’s guidance when a number matters to your show.
