Special effect-making a photo split and drift off the screen

I would like to cut a photo with a jagged edge and make the two resulting parts glide off the screen in different directions. Can anyone suggest a plug-in or program with which I could do this?
Thanks.
Mary

Hi Mary,
as an Expert For The Arcane.... forget digital, do "ToolTime"
basic: film "tricks" the eye... it is just 25/30 stills in a sequence...
(you hadn't told us, wether "the couple" is a moving image or a still? anyhow, I start with a moving image:)
make still of "last" frame (the point in time, where the toring apart happens...)
make a print of that (laser would be nice, a color jet printer is nicer
tear that print out in two pieces
now, the tricky part:
place you camcorder over a table, set light....
place both pieces underneath camera
record, how you push both parts in different corners..
(do some versions...)
don't record on tape, import DIRECTLY into iM!
the tricky part is, to place the camera in a way, that the pieces allmost stay in the same place as the last frame of moving image! (switch in iM between "import" and playback)
back to iM:
edit 1 - 2frames off of the very beginning the sequence
fasten sequence (rabbit)
add to last frame of moving sequence...
I would add some "sepia" and "cinema" (=making pic looking old) effect
this hard cut/jump cut (you cut off the beginning of the movement) from moving image to real picture will "surprise" the eye, the whole "moving pieces" sequence will be no longer then 10 - 15 frames... (you shouldn't do that slow-mo).....
I've done that before...- ok, not really Hollywood, but as a single shot the effects surprises most watchers...
you'll spend half a day for 15 frames... of glory ;-))))
