How to do the "cut to X" i2v videos and what are they called?

I have no idea how to describe it but I will do my best.
Basically some AI sites have "effects" such as cut to X. How it works, on a "cut to dance" example:

  1. You upload an image
  2. Output: For the first 1-2 seconds, the person idles (smiles, waves their hair, etc.)
  3. Then there is transition (either fade to black or just a cut)
  4. The person now performs the action (in this example, dances) with the same face, the same clothes, sometimes the same background, with different camera angle.

Does it have a name? If so, what is it called? And how can I do something that works in a simmilar way in comfyUI? I understand how to make the "regular" i2v video (for example the person just stands up and dances, there is no cut) but I have no idea how to try it with that transition.
