The most I can add is the name, which is "whip pan", a technique in which
the camera operator finishes a shot by panning the camera as fast as
possible through 180 or more degrees. I've done it to end shots and use as
a transition in editing. I've never tried it to begin a shot, which would
provide material to achieve the effect you've described of a new scene
beginning. Often you can get away with just the one whip pan, dissolving
quickly to the new scene. If I were going to try to create the effect in
post I'd probably try a combination of greatly increased speed and blur,
but I doubt I'd be happy with the result compared to shooting it in the
first place.

It's become popular in TV shows lately -- I think "The Firm" was one of
them, but I've seen others, too -- to have a kind of "whizzing" transition
from one scene to another. That is, when leaving the first scene, it looks
like the camera is being rotated at breakneck speed so that all you see is a
blur as though everything was passing by really fast, and then you end up at
the new scene. Anybody know how to achieve that kind of effect in Premiere?
