Lower-third management

Horizontal lower-thirds

For all videos using lower-thirds, it is recommended to use the typeface The Sans (or Calibri as an alternative).

Lower-thirds should be placed on the left-hand side of the screen. The colour must be chosen to ensure high contrast with the background.
If the video includes subtitles, care must be taken to ensure that they do not overlap with the lower-thirds.

Subtitles may include a drop shadow to improve readability if necessary.

Vertical lower-thirds

For all videos using lower-thirds, it is recommended to use the typeface The Sans (or Calibri as an alternative).

Lower-thirds should be placed on the left-hand side of the screen. The colour must be chosen to ensure strong contrast with the background.
Subtitles should also include a drop shadow to enhance readability.
For mobile versions, a safe zone must be respected to ensure proper visibility and prevent overlap with interface elements.
