I've set up a nice scene and understand the projection and camera move in Vue.
But for the life of me don't understand why we must do this in Vue!.. my render would seem to take over a day maybe more...
I want to import my scene in Nuke to add a camera?..I feel like that wouldn't take as long?

Can anyone recommend a link or tut for saving a Vue scene for exporting into nuke?
I'm not sure what file format Nuke needs to read for a Vue import?

Thanks

The sucky bit was, I made the original speed painting at a tiny resolution (like 600 pixels wide), so when it came time to do the final painting, I had to upres a lot of layers by repainting them from scratch, layers that probably would have been fine to use if the original document had just been larger. Serves me right :)

The back story behind this matte painting is about 500 years after a virus had spread over the entire world, even after the hopes that they could find away to stop it. The human race had to recede underground as the only way of escaping the final protocol, radiating the entire surface of everything that was infected. People, plants, animals and entire ecosystems where devastated. Living underground for hundreds of years saved many and allowed them to advance as a civilization, only to face the fact that this was not suppose to be a permanent solution. So they decided to take their families and dream in search of a better place to live on the surface of another world. These are what remain of a civilization that had once called the dark recesses of earth home. Now it is but just a vague reminder of an event that once changed the world.
Its a WIP (about 2 hours into it) painted in Photoshop.
