Hi ulven,
… hit accidentally hit the wrong button -poof! SORRY!
(asked our host Peter to repair that)
meanwhile … to answer your question:
Step #1
build the design
what I've done here, put your 'template' into the canvas to have a reference …
using Motions Title template, all it needs is the 'face' and the bar.
Step #2
add a Mask
to unveil anything, masks are handy - so, the bar gets a rectangle mask
Step #3
build animation
now, then starts: hit the red record button and put anything in place. I recommend doing it backwards, so, the last keyframe is the actual layout; then I move the playhead backwards, for example the face to its far right position.
when done un-check/hit rec again.....
Step #4
publish
Save your new lower 3rd … check in FCPX

hmm, me a grumpy ol' man - left out a few minor but probably important steps . :woohoo:
… but basically it's that easy …
And there are probably more … elegant ways to accomplish your task, align-to behaviour, nil-objects etc etc. But for a start, Masks are the way to go.-
And again, apologises for nixing your Original Post … those knobs are sooo tiny and sooo close <grml>
