Re: How would I go about creating a vid like this?

Wow, you want an entire film production and visual fx course in one post response? Without watching the video - i've seen a creed video before - i can say that they hire a professional D.P. who is an expert in lighting for film and video. They probably have an FX Supervisor, and the production company probably hires a post house with a small team of animators and compositors. Someone else usually edits.
You don't generally composite in a 3d program. You export the animation in a series of "passes" containing color, highlights, shadows, etc., as well as z depth information, normals mapping, and other good stuff. Then a compositor puts it together in a program like AE or Shake.
Something like a sandstorm could be done in many ways. One way would be a particle system in either a 3d or 2.5d program like AE.
And attaining the level of skill to pull off this kind of work generally takes years of study and practical experience.
Hope that helps.
