This is for a motion graphics video. In [scene], accent an arriving element with a "Line Burst" (also called a radial line burst or shape burst): short strokes shoot outward from around the element, then retract or fade.
Space the strokes evenly around the element, and let each one grow from its inner end and vanish toward its outer end — unlike a circle burst, the accent is a ring of separate rays, not one closed circle. For a polygon version, throw small shapes outward instead of strokes.
Fit it into [duration], quick and snappy, and fire it at the moment the element pops in.
