I'm at the end of a short and wanting to fade from a street level to the entire street followed by a few streets if you get what I mean.  On screen i will be using a panning shot after the first fade but as this isn't the shooting script, does anybody know what the best way to write this would be? Any help would be appreciated.

I find it easier to use an object, either a person, or an animal...

Eric Roth used it to great effect in FORREST GUMP, with the feather.

Try to avoid such camera angles.  The director decides these.

If you're the director, then you can write it anyway you want.  Camera angles, generally, go into the shooting script and not the spec script.
