Looks like the ‘sweep left’ demo here might fit the bill http://fofwebdesign.co.uk/template/_testing/sweep-in-news-scroller.php

Have a look at the supporting blog post for simplified markup (very similar to yours) and an explanation of the JavaScript (which sequentially adds and removes a class to each item in a list) and CSS (for the sweeping animation once the JS class is applied) http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/entry.php?321-Simple-Sweep-in-News-Scroller-(CSS3-JS)

And play around with the sizing of the container(s) to make it full screen.
