Is there examples of accessing Quicktime this way.
It depends on what you want to accomplish. There are many QuickTime
tasks you can do with Declare, but not all. For example, you can
perform things as complex as audio and video capture (sequence grabber)
using only Declares, but when it comes to callbacks Declare probably
won't get you too far. In cases where Declares won't do it, you can
write cross-platform C/C++ plugins. If you could elaborate on what you
want to do, maybe we can zero in on a more definitive answer.
As for examples, you can ask on this list for help with QuickTime
Declares. There are several list inhabitants that can help on the
subject. The biggest problems you'll face in using Declares with
QuickTime is how to convert the QuickTime function parameters to
REALbasic data types. There was a very good article by Joe Strout on
Declares a few years back that talked about this very topic. (was it in
MacTech?)

Developer? Or am I just imagining that? (I'm hoping someone else
will chime in here.)
There's a QuickTime article here if that's what you mean.
