I watched the video,

You can insert an arbitrary "Free models" on Altium (so there is no footprint 
association)
Their process suggest that you create a enclosure with a "sub-assembly" that is 
the board shape.
That "sub-assembly" can be snap to be the board shape .. so the enclosure (the 
other "sub-assembly") will be automatically aligned to the board..

This is a different process...not directly supported on KiCad, but you can 
achieve similar results with KiCad and other MCAD software (or with your stepUp)

Subject: Re: [Kicad-developers] VRML export

have a look here
https://youtu.be/kIkx86l5s_M

if you change
SolidWorks with FreeCAD
Altium with KiCad

and add StepUp tools to link STEP (MCAD) and VRML (ECAD) models
you can do a similar video with same result :)

and all in open source environment ;)
