Imagine the transporter used as a weapon.

Someone took a run at that in 1984. :)

Transporting, from the POV of the person being transported

Star Trek TNG s6 e2

Star Trek: Enterprise “Impulse”

The Boeing YC-14 Transporter Prototype had its engines mounted so that the exhaust would blow over the wings to create lift, giving it Short Takeoff capability. Why doesn’t any production aircraft use this?

Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991)

Transporter effects Day 7: A Sampling of other transporters. 

1. Mirrorverse transporter. More blotchy. 2. Ferengi transporter, with a swish. 3. Borg, little glowworms. 4. Romulan, green water. 5. Klingons, red sparkles 6. Hunters, cartoon inverse black and white. 7. Dominion, multiple columns 8. Caretaker, sand. 9. 29th Century Starfleet, mix of old and new, columns and sparkles. 10. Scavengers from the episode Anomaly, a proper quick transporter. Like erasing an etch-a-sketch?

Transporter Effect Day 4: TNG Movie Edition

The TNGs make subtle effects change from the show and movie per movie. Also none of the movies involving the Enterprise-E ever show us that ship’s transporter room.

Generations: The addition of a solid column around the tradition TNG transporter effect. 

First Contact & Nemesis: virtually identical to each other with thinner sparkles and columns that are on a colour spectrum rather than uniform blue. The Nemesis one takes a bit longer and looks like they applied an HD filter or something.

Insurrection: The odd duck of the bunch, looks the most TNG-esque while a bit cheaper than the rest. 

As suggested by @thecaptainoutoftime I’ll be doing a weeklong set about (mainline) transporters effects. I’ll mostly focus on Starfleet ones. 

Transporters effects Day 1: TOS/TAS Edition

With bonus The Cage transporter which just takes forever and had to be compressed down. But not nearly as long as TMP. A lot of sprinkles in each case, looks like you should be decorating a pastry with the TAS one.
