Hey there,

The Frontier Brothers (full disclosure: I am their keyboardist) did a tilt-shift music video a few months back- http://vimeo.com/2925475

Weird, huh.

It’s not post-production work. This was almost certainly shot with a Canon SLR body and a tilt-shift lens.

“it may have been done with an actual tilt-shift lens.”

However it was done, I love it! I could watch a feature-length film done that way. (Well, maybe not.) The second video samples from Knight Rider… worth the click through just for that!

Most of the charm is that it’s a simple optical trick. My favourite part was the GI Joe helicopter pad.

Have you seen the credits for the new series, Dollhouse? They’re tilt-shift, too, but I can’t tell if it’s done in camera or in post-production. http://www.hulu.com/watch/62187/dollhouse-true-believer

If I’m not mistaken, it’s only a post-production technique when you’re faking it in Photoshop with blurs. This looks like it may have been done with an actual tilt-shift lens.
