In Camera or in post?

I am new to video and have a question regarding something I saw. http://youtube.com/#/watch?v=NQlueM5ETYU In the sequences where there is blur in parts of the frame, is this done in camera or likely in post. I can see that maybe it is done in camera by things like vaseline on the lens,tilt-shift, or lensbaby type stuff. I wanted an educated opinion because I have pretty much zero knowledge of video post . Thanks
 
Link just redirects me to the YT homepage, so I searched for the end part of the URL and came up with this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQlueM5ETYU

Is that the right link?

I've never really seen anything quite like that before. It doesn't look like any optical tilt-shift images I've seen, which usually just defocus certain areas simulating a ridiculously shallow DOF. This doesn't have that miniaturization; it looks like it's mainly causing a very unique bokeh. Could be some sort of bizarre hard matte? I honestly don't know.
 
I think I read somewhere about the use of glass or somthing in front of the lens

or maybe warped transparent plastic

like get an old platic ND and put it in the oven so it warps then scratch it up a bit too

maybe try a CD case in your matte box and scratch up half of it

Yes it is the right link the Louis Vuitton ad. It's so amazing and dreamy.

If I remember correctly, I believe Diopters were used for some of the unique in camera looks in this video.
