Different ways to do this effect.

Hello everyone.
take a look at this kinetic effect.

How would you get this looking so dynamic?
I would guess with a time re-map, posterise time, an echo and perhaps ReelSmart Motion blur.
The shot is taken in 2 pictures, (foreground and background) and then th foreground is masked in.
Any other ideas?
Thanks

A picture is only as good as the glass it comes through. And the person using the camera has something to do with it too.

I disagree. When you look closely, in the close ups, at second 12 and at second 16 for instance, you can make out the masking lines around the foreground subjects. I would say its been done with a computer controlled remote crane, and in 2 shots.
But Im interested in ideas how to get the effect.
Thanks for your input anyway.

you should try kronos from the foundry if you can... it interpolates frames on an accelerated footage and creates that kind of motin blur. OR at least close to it.
