1920x1080 video export with only bottom bar

Question

Not very experienced in After Effects but I am trying to export 1920 x 1080 video but instead of having black bars on top and bottom, I want to keep just bar only at the bottom.

So instead of having equal space on top and bottom for 1920x1080 video

I want to create space only under the video, how can I accomplish this

Please help.
Than you

What's your monitor resolution?

I'm asking, because in the case you didn't added those bars by yourself, they are added from the video player you are using. This won't happen if you watch the video on a 1920x1080 screen. As soon as the video aspect is differnet from the video aspect, the player adds black bars to compensate this.

If you want a bar on the bottom of the video, you have to understand this will only work on a screen with a resolution like yours. To do so, you create a composition in the screen resolution, put the video in it and place it on the top side. Then you export this in a codec which supports this screen resolution and you are done.
