I don't think you can within the same app. You *could* make a standalone as a system window which will float above other apps, launch it with Applescript and show it just before you transition, then hide or quit it after the transition. It's an ugly hack, but it is how I do animated dialogs or progress indicators. I have no solution for Windows though. I don't know how you would communicate with a separate Windows compiled app from another.
