There are no template specific for that...
You should probably start with a WPF application template.
WPF would be ideal for that if you want to have visual effects.
You can look at videos on the following site to see some of the possibilities of WPF.

I have not yet used WPF much as I have works primarily win WinForms. With WinForms you won't have nice effects and transitions as in WPF but it is easier to learn.
You might also want to take a look on available third party component... It might be possible that someone has already done a similar component and it would then be much easier to use.
