Star Wipe

One layer acts as a moving window (by transparency or brightness) that reveals the image beneath, typically text or a shape wiping content into view.

This is for a motion graphics video. In [scene], use a "Track Matte Reveal" (also called a matte reveal, alpha matte or luma matte): a separate text or shape layer acts as a window, and the picture beneath shows only inside it.
Animate the window itself so it travels across and uncovers different parts of the picture, while the picture underneath keeps playing in place and everything outside the window stays empty — a shape wipe would instead replace one shot with the next.
Run it over [duration], and cut the window either by the matte layer's transparency for a crisp edge or by its brightness for a soft, graded one.

Parallel strips reveal the next shot, like slats of window blinds turning open.

This is for a motion graphics video. Join two shots in [scene] with a "Venetian Blinds" transition (also called a band wipe): a set of parallel strips opens across the frame and reveals the next shot, like the slats of window blinds turning open.
Make the strips equal in width and open them all at the same time — unlike a plain wipe, no single edge travels across the frame, and both shots stay put.
Run the transition over [duration], with every strip opening at the same pace.

The outgoing shot zooms rapidly toward a point and the incoming shot zooms out from a similar point, as if flying through the cut.

This is for a motion graphics video. Join two shots in [scene] with a "Zoom Transition" (also called a zoom in/out transition): the outgoing shot zooms rapidly toward a point and the incoming shot comes out of the same point, as if flying through the cut.
Keep the zoom going in one direction across both shots and hide the cut at its fastest moment — unlike a punch in, the travel between the sizes is shown, and unlike a camera zoom it ends in a different shot.
Run the transition over [duration], speeding up into the cut and slowing down out of it.

Two vertical or horizontal edges move from the center to the sides (or the reverse) like opening barn doors.

This is for a motion graphics video. Join two shots in [scene] with a "Barn Door Wipe" (also called barn doors, a split or a center split): two edges part from the middle of the frame toward the sides and uncover the next shot, like barn doors opening.
Keep both shots still while the edges travel — unlike a push, nothing slides out of the frame, and unlike a plain wipe the reveal starts in the middle and runs both ways at once. For the closing version, bring the edges in from the sides to meet in the middle.
Run the transition over [duration], with both edges moving at the same pace.
