Design a simple name band lower third in WASP3D
The WASP3D Designer provides a powerful yet intuitive interface for building on-air graphics. One of the most common broadcast elements is a name band (lower third), which introduces speakers, anchors, or guests during a live production.
In this tutorial, we explore how to use the Designer interface to create a simple name band by combining shapes and text, customizing their properties, and adding smooth animations. The Designer’s viewport, track view, and parameters panel make it easy to design, preview, and fine-tune professional-quality graphics in real time.
You’ll also learn how to enhance text elements with animation presets, use opacity nodes for dynamic masking effects, and integrate data entry forms that allow operators to update names and titles instantly during a broadcast. Once designed, the template can be seamlessly deployed in the Playout Client, ensuring flexibility and quick turnaround in live scenarios.
This name band tutorial is not just about design—it introduces you to the core workflow of WASP3D Designer: building objects, animating with keyframes, applying effects, and connecting your graphics to real-time data.
