Many commercials and documentaries use a technique where a still photograph is panned or zoomed, and a parallax-like effect is applied. When zooming, some figures scale differently from others and a 3D effect is simulated.
What is this effect called, and how is it done?
Edit: I'm looking for the extra effect that's added beyond panning/zooming a still photograph that seems to allow you to see what was behind some objects. Or sometimes objects more in the foreground will become larger than before, covering up more of the objects behind them than before.

It's called the Ken Burns effect.
"The name derives from extensive use of the technique by American documentarian Ken Burns. The technique predates his use of it, but his name has become associated with the effect in much the same way as Alfred Hitchcock is associated with the Hitchcock zoom."
Edit: A 3D effect can be seen in motion comics / illustrated films but this might only be the case with existing artwork, not necessarily photos.
Edit again: This is a video showing how to edit a photo to animate it with a "3D parallax" effect. Not sure if that's the real name but I think it is what you're looking for.
