[Michael Szalapski]

It’s generally called a lower third. Creating one is very simple once you know how to use after effects.
Please read through the manual. It is actually helpful.
The simplest way to create one is to make a solid and mask it off to be the shape you want. (Or create a shape layer)
Then put text over top of it.
Parent the text to the shape.
Animate the shape’s position.
