cuts to

Depending on the context, I believe it can also be "cut to".

CUT TO
The most simple and common transition. Since this transition is implied by a change of scene, it may be used sparingly to help intensify character changes and emotional shifts. The transition describes a change of scene over the course of one frame.

FILMS GUION: Escritura del guion:que es pasar de un plano a otro ...
filmsguion.blogspot.com/2008/01/escritura-del-guionque-es-pasar-de-un.html
22 ene. 2008 - Escritura del guion:que es pasar de un plano a otro: por corte, o por ... un plano se encadena con otro, yo suelo indicar "ENCADENA A".

Quizá sería mejor que expusieses algún ejemplo concreto, pero voy a intentar responderte así, en general:

Hay dos maneras de pasar de un plano a otro: por corte, o por fundido (encadenado de imágenes, o disolución del plano en un color).

"FUNDE A" es la expresión que se usa para indicar que la imagen debe disolverse en un color. Por ejemplo, al final del guión, lo más usual es indicar:

FUNDE A NEGRO.
O también: FUNDIDO FINAL.

Cuando un plano se encadena con otro, yo suelo indicar "ENCADENA A".
Por ejemplo:
