Motion-graphics page specifying on-screen nameplate placement, with a 2x2 grid of a portrait showing left and right name and textplate positions.

Summary

A motion-graphics spec page for video nameplates (lower-thirds), pairing a left text column of typographic rules with a 2x2 grid of the same portrait demonstrating four placement variants.

Visual description

Light grey background. A thin "Nameplate" heading sits top-left in dark sans-serif. The left third is a narrow column of small body copy: an intro paragraph, then labeled "Name" and "Additional text" specs (Typeface Inter Light, Color Bravida Dark Blue / White, Font size 45 px, Leading Auto, Left aligned), a second paragraph on textplates, and numbered captions at the bottom. The right two-thirds holds a 2x2 grid of an identical photo of a bald man in a yellow hi-vis jacket against a pale wall, each tile numbered 1 to 4 with a small circled digit. Tiles 1 and 2 show the name "Hakan Palmgren" plus role and location set directly over the footage (left side, then right side) in white type. Tiles 3 and 4 add a white rounded textplate behind the type, with the role line picked out in light blue. Generous whitespace separates the column from the grid.

Key takeaway

Showing the same shot four times to isolate a single variable (placement and with or without a backing plate) makes a lower-third rule instantly legible. Pairing the exact type spec column beside the live examples means a motion designer can read the rule and see the result in one glance.

Reuse notes

A strong template page for any brand guideline that has to document on-screen titling for video. Reach for it when you need to show positional variants of an overlay without writing paragraphs. The numbered-tile grid pairs naturally with a following subtitles or motion page. Needs a clean reference portrait that reads at small size.
