Which effect is this?

2.13 has an effect. A transparent black layer that moves.
Collectively, what do we call these?

How to do it in Premier pro?

thanks

It may be an animation created in After Effects and placed on a track above the main video.

I would call this a semi-transparent overlay to improve the readability of the text.

Steps to recreate this effect:

1. Create a Solid Black color matte
2. Put it on a video track above your footage
3. Drop the opacity of the Color Matte
4. Create a cut-out using the mask tool, or using a 3rd party Crop Effect to create a diagonal.
5. Finally, add a video transition to reveal and conceal the black color matte (e.g., Wipe or Push.) 

I personally recommend FI: Wipe Impact, or FI: Push Impacts, by Film Impact because of their easing controls and motion blur.
