Lower thirds for OBS, Streamlabs and live streams

A lower third is the name strap that sits in the bottom third of the screen — the guest’s name, their title, the topic you’re discussing. It’s the single graphic that makes a stream look like television.

CrispOverlays lower thirds are animated, transparent and editable while you’re live. Type a new guest name on your phone and it slides onto your stream in OBS, Streamlabs, vMix or XSplit a moment later — no refreshing browser sources, no exporting video files.

Lower thirds: questions

How do I add a lower third in OBS?

Pick a lower third in CrispOverlays, copy your stream’s browser source URL and add it in OBS as a Browser source at 1920 × 1080. Edit the name and title in CrispOverlays and it updates live.

Can I change the name during a live stream?

Yes. Every lower third is edited live — from the studio on your computer or the remote on your phone — and the change appears on stream instantly.

Can I show and hide a lower third on cue?

Yes. Use the Show / Hide button, a keyboard shortcut, or the remote. The lower third animates in and out every time.

5 of 11 lower thirds are free on every plan. The rest are included in Creator or Studio.

Do these lower thirds work with OBS and Streamlabs?

Yes. They work in OBS Studio, Streamlabs Desktop, XSplit, vMix, Twitch Studio, Meld Studio, PRISM Live Studio and any app with a browser source.
