From the video, at around 5:30, Deej says, "You'll take your first step into the Taken King at the level that you've attained."

Gives me the impression that it will literally just be a direct transfer. If you're at Light Level 28, when you launch after TTK drops, you'll then be a level 28. If you're Light Level 34, you'll be at level 34.

Maybe I'm wrong, maybe he misspoke and meant something else.
