Does anyone know how to make the end credits/titles that have left and right data, like in the movies?

I am trying to put end credits on a feature film. These would be cast, crew, music, thank-you, etc. I want them to be like a commerical film, with data on the left, a center space, and data on the right. I don't see any templates or downloads to do this (found one for Final Cut but that's a Mac application. I would have thought this would be easy, but so far I have had no luck. Any thoughts?

Under Title > Standard we have 'Floating text on the left', and --right. When drawn down to the timeline, each of them are 2 items, they take 2 tracks. The upper item is of a grey 'carpet', partly transparent, covering a part of the screen, with a vertical white narrow column. The lower is a text field, where you write your text. If you use them both, placing them under each other, (taking 4 tracks), you can write your Left and your Right text, to be shown at the same time. If you want open center, without the 'carpet and columns', then delete the 2 'carpets' by first Ungrouping them (broken chain).

I hope you understand ! (This refers to MEP 17)
