Card Wipe (available from the Adobe Web site)


    This effect simulates the effect a group of people in a stadium with cards, holding the cards that make a picture, and then flipping them over to reveal a different picture. Card Wipe gives you full control over the number of rows and columns of cards, the flip direction, and the transition direction, including the ability to use a gradient to determine flip order. Use the effects controls to adjust randomness and jitter. You can vary the rows and columns to create venetian blind and chinese lantern effects.

    For more information, see the After Effects product section on Adobe's Web site.
