Basically what's happening here is, they're taking the video clip of the blonde girl, and then doing a process called rotoscoping (or masking or matting or cut out or whatever you want to call it)? To put it simply, they're cutting her out of the background and then placing her on top of another video clip, while applying some motion effects to her. There's no one simple "do this" effect to achieve the look. There are threads all about rotoscoping and masking on the forums. That should get you started.
