Use Codrops' Pixel Transition Effects (demo https://tympanus.net/Development/PixelTransition/, article https://tympanus.net/codrops/?p=71437, code https://github.com/codrops/PixelTransition, MIT) as a scene transition: an overlay of square cells (8 rows × 14 columns in demo 1) scales in with a stagger to cover the frame, the scene swaps underneath, and the cells scale away. Six variations change the stagger origin and direction (js/demo1–6). Copy overlay.js; its show() and hide() return GSAP tweens, so build both into one paused timeline centred on the cut and seek it from the frame (HyperFrames: window.__timelines; Remotion: tl.seek(frame / fps)). Set rows and columns for the aspect ratio (fewer columns in 9:16) and the cell colour to the brand colour.
