Alternatively, you could save the images as TGAs and using tga2df3.exe, 
create a DF3 file. This can be rendered as emitting media. Once you have 
created the DF3 file you can render it from any angle and location, 
without re-rendering the slices.
I did something similar with a fractal a couple of years ago.
It is an added complication though and I would leave it for later. :-)
