Best not to watch the sausage being made.

Yes you can! go to http://library.creativecow.net/video_tutorials.php and also search youtube.com under how to after effects, there you will learn all the tricks! you can download after effects trial version that you can use, photoshop cs3 or after effects is the programs used for these effects but I find both are almost the same except photoshop is for stills only and has brushes and after effects is for video with no brushes, if you learn one you will know how to use both but the come hand in hand!
My pleasure to help you!
The horizons give the reality away.
After Effects is a great application, but it wouldn't be necessary. Shooting the practicals would be the best option.
This is backed by the Canadian Government, they can afford to do it right.

Hello folks,
What I have recently found makes me really jealous. Could you please check the following link a tell me, how this is done? Notice the shot starting at 1:12. Camera is moving forward, right above the ground, so you feel like you are flying. It cannot be on dolly, because the shot is so long that the dolly track would be visible. I don't believe, that the guy would bring a crane, jib or something like that on this location. But how?
Thank you for any response.
There appear to be a number of techniques. Some of them pretty clever, motion control while time-lapse. Could be any number of rigs, the easiest would be with telescope tracking platforms.
Then there are the Jib-Arm shots that move over the cliff, it's involved to shoot, but the payoff is well worth it.
There are a number of smaller jib-arms that could accomplish this, and perhaps he had his trusty cinema-trained Guide to help.
The "Bee's Eye View" hovering through the foliage could be any number of steady-cam rigs with the camera mounted upside down dog's eye view mode.
Remember, this is travel eye-candy for those that love the woods. THey're going to put some bucks into it.
Quite beautiful stuff, would've liked to hear some of the environment, there's nothing like a babbling brook that actually babbles.
(just noticed the explanation at the bottom of this page, wasn't too far off)

You can see the items on the shelf in front of the "mirror", they're just a bit off.

B&W Stock, deep red and green filters. Red used exterior, the greens used at night and interior. Over exposed, under developed probably a half stop, telecine to NLE, more gamma and curve adjustments made to blow out the lower contrast areas, and a crunch in the black.
The directional lighting really enhanced it, and was reflected with similar use of shiny boards during the day.
Beautiful work.
