    There is 3D involved.

    If a 3D motion-tracking program was used, what happens is it is able to reconstruct the live-footage into 3D using points gathered by the movement of the camera. It reads it using constrasty areas--much like 2D tracking programs, but its able to also read a z-depth. I don't know all the info on how it works, but it very helpful.

    Those points and camera data are then exported to a 3D program where you can add CG elements and render it out using the camera data. Boujou and Icarus are also able to reconstruct surface data for shadow passes.
