Christopher,

Thanks very much for the quick reply.  I guess that answers that question.

I may try using an orthographic camera in the place of the film.  If this
does not work as I need it to, my next question:

 .. is there a way to put up a movie screen within the render.. which I
could then take an image of using a standard camera and grab that as an
output file...?

Thanks again..

Robert
