How to create a dropping horizontal line that reveals a lower third?

[georges90798549]

Can this be done in Premiere Pro? If so, I cannot find an appropriate tutorial. My fear is that it is a task for After Effects.

Can someone give me a clue or supply the related link?

Thanks from a novice.

One way you can do that is to use the titler to make the line and keyframe its position.  Keyframe the crop effect on your media as required.

Can you give a link to or upload an example of what you want to do?

There are several ways to do what you want, I made a quick and dirty tutorial to show you one easy way in Premiere:

I think I would composite a Linear Wipe and a Line Graphic using keyframes.

ie the Linear Wipe on the Graphic follows the Line motion to reveal it
