how is this effect done ?
I'm not sure if this is for photoshop,
There is an effect i see often on television ( mainly on commercials ),, where at some point the
video goes from moving to frozen,, and then a camera pans around the frozen image ?
e.g a scene of some person walking or a car driving,, the video gets frozen, and the effect is
the camera pans around the person or car while its paused... how the hell is this done ?

Yes, like in the matrix,, but it looks so much better in commercials,...
I know not many will agree with this...
I want to know what software , I would need ,, 3d-studio ?
to simulate this from existing footage... using virtual camera's
I suppose... ( no doubt it would be adbsurdly slow to render
on a single machine, but none the less, ... )
I guess ... something like Amaya or 3DSMAX would do the trick ...
I have no first hand experience with stuff like that though ... just saw how they made the cool effects on the Matrix DVD :)

Why we're here,,
do you know the name of the effect, they also use in commercials where it's a highly smooth transition from normal speed to
very smooth slow motion....
Bullet Time?
a ton of cameras and some 3d software from what I saw
there was a large array of cameras all shooting the action at the same time in a circle around the object that they pan around ... cool effect
