It's under 6 minutes long.

What I wonder is, how do they get those different-colored designs on the bread?

Outside of the loaf is well-floured for the last rise, often in a
banneton/brotform, then a lame or very sharp knife tip is used to cut
in the designs.

I see. I still wonder about the colors, though.

The floured, shallow cuts and deeper cuts crust differently and color
differently duping baking.

Beyond that, different flours can be used for different colors on the
outsides and insides and foods, themselves can be used to design,
fruits, veggies, herbs...sky's the limit.
