I just saw a very nice table top dolly at nab, their website is :

Tabletop dolly is also very preferable, the slow short radius allows for a very nice parallax that you can’t get with a lazy Susan. Here is another behind the scenes video:

Try Flow from Gridiron, it may be discontinued though.

We do a lot of visual effects you are asking for in house but providing step by step breakdown is really not possible. Contact DVD has a pretty good behind the scenes of how they created the shot .
If you want to do it yourself and have After Effects (with mocha AE) watch the tutorials on the mocha site to track markers and create shape masks:

Create the images you want to composite in the mirror for the effect and use the mattes and tracking information from Mocha to pit them all together.
Without storyboards and outline of what you wish to achieve it is hard to break it down any further.

No problem, I am busy with a few days of filming but will follow up with lighting possibilities.

So I did a little digging and found that the segment was created by a VFX company named Crush. They shot the segment with a Phantom in 8 second bursts in a green screen set. Post work was done using RealFlow, Maya, AfterEffects, Nuke, Cinema 4D, PF Track and Flame.
Amazing work, here is their site:

Referring to the example you posted:
This was probably shot in front of a green screen with heavy post work so you will find it very difficult to replicate what you see using practical lights/location.
A darkened studio is a good start but all the walls and floor will have to be black. You will probably need more them a 1K to light the subject, you might want to bounce a light (Maxi Brute?)off a white board or silk off the ceiling and then put another layer of diffusion between the subject (Lee 250 1/2 White Diff)to wrap the light around him.
Then you can use low power scrims (350W-650W) directly to create the streaming light effect but either way it will be challenging. A camera with very high dynamic range will help you with your desired effects.
Very nice piece.
