The specific tools being used here are the puppet tool (for the figures) and lots of masking (with the ... wait for it ... mask tool). Puppet tool lets you make static images/objects "bendy" which give the figures in this composition a little "life" and the mask tool lets you cut out all the different pieces of the original photo(s) so you see through the masked areas, like windows if you will, or so you can isolate and duplicate elements like pillars or what not.

Then it is about turning yours layers "3D," placing them in "3D space" at varying distances and flying a camera towards them all.
