i would suspect that the original footage was shot with a very very strnghold
light source off to one side. the effect is really all in the lighting. try
it with a home video camera- then the helpful hints using photoshop and after
effects will clean it up. the beauty of it is that you don't need great
video.....

I am doing this off the top of my head, but once you have the black and
white palette you could do a color replace. As for the little dots or
"dithering", you can turn it off. No?
