Holy cow, that's quite a series of steps.  It all makes sense though.

I've been following this, as I'm having a terrible time finding props for a
story I'm working on.  It was originally going to be for the "Classic
Sci-Fi" in the IRTC but I missed the deadline, so now I'm calming down and
doing it *right*.

In my case, I'm also using Moray to pose the scene, so I typically import
frame 1 and frame 'last' as UDO's to preview the scene and get the camera's
right.  I'm trying to figure out a better/faster way to do that.
