If I understand what you're after, I bet there's a built-in transition
provided by QuickTime that provides something close to what you're looking
for.  Otherwise, I would think you gotta script it.  If you're dealing with
some kind of image you can use the blendlevel combined with
scaling/movement.  For example, capture the current card image onto the new
cd, then move and blendlevel the capture to reveal the new card.  Might not
be as smooth as desired,  so I would check QT's effects to see if the wheel
has already been invented.
