I just came across this video and I can usually easily figure out how the effects were pulled off except for this one. I was wondering if anybody in this forum would be able to tell how it's been done. Here is the link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hmpxsk3dHaA
Shooting Technique

Lots of planning, lots of methods depending on the shot, and Michel Gondry the director is a genius, creative and technical.

a lot of cardboard and tape. all the effects are hand made to emulate the crap video effects that he keeps using ( or retro cool if you were born after the 80's). oh and ditto to Arson , a hell of a lot of planning
Many different layered techniques. You have to have a perfect understanding in your mind, lay it out on paper, figure out the major techniques, and then the transitional techniques.
For example, the clock at 0:20 is shot normally then edited to add the prism effect. A still of the result it sent out to a fab shop and the multi camera prop is built for the next scene. Loading the edited prism clip into the camera or video village would aid in positioning the prop.
Lots of prep time and lots of shoot time. Feature films should do this type of stuff when mixing live action, special effects, miniatures, and CGI/VFX work.
