The ZOOM - Shine Demo on this site
Is there a tutorial on how to do this effect? Maybe its terribly obvious...at any rate, I would like to know!
Thanks in advance.

There is no tutorial yet. If more requests come one will be written.
Short info:
I used two clips of the girl. One shot close and one further away. Both shot handheld while walking in an arc around her. I used the Tracker/Stabilizer to stabilze the clips.
I placed the clips in two layers with the closer one below. Made a transition that faded down opacity and animated up scale of the "far away" layer so the layers matched approx. The transition was only over a few frames. Then added Shine in an adjustment layer with in and out points just so the transition was covered. Used Colorize "None" and animated up Ray Length from zero to about 8 and back down again during the transition.
The clips were color-corrected using Levels and Hue/Saturation.

I've been wanting to do an effect like this for a while. I liked your technique. I just used Radial blur >Zoom while changing the scale before, and never really got what i wanted (I did this with an illustrator text item for testing). I'm going to try yours.
Any ideas on the speeded up blur that Pans In/across and then slows down real smooth (still popular in film and TV). almost looks like a bullet time, but doesnt really arc or anything, just starts fast (blurred) and then slows down when it get close to the subject. This probably isn't the forum for this but thought i'd ask.
Thanks,

Cool. I guessed right when I disected it after seeing the clip.
Question. Was there an incamera zoom on the wide shot or did you pull it forward in AE?

No, there was no zoom in the clip itself.
I was not really intending to use Shine for this, I just wanted to make a quick zoom in and I noticed it looked rather rough when just zooming in AE. Then I added Shine in an adjustment layer and got the look I wanted.
