Would this trope include the use of a blinding flash as a means to segway from one scene to the next, as a sort of Leaning on the Fourth WallFade to Black?

Off hand, this troper can think of an example in Fallout 3, when a camera flash at the Player Character's birthday is used to skip ahead about a decade during the Justified Tutorial prologue.
