I've seen that advert and yep, its done by posistion loads of cameras around the action. If you want to do this completely in Lighwave, its easy.
To do this just animate the scene like normal but pause it for the bit where you want to active 'Bullit Time'. This means you will have animated action, pause and then more animated action continuing. Then go back and as soon as the pause starts rotate the camera around the object (paused). When the pause stops, stop the camera movement. This will give a nice 'Bullit Time' effect with only one camera. If you want to do this with live action, you'll have to go out and buy a few more cameras.
