Vue Lighting Rig #4: Single Spot In Front
Monday, October 22nd, 2007This lighting rig is one I used a lot when I first did lighting for plays at school. We didn’t have many lights and we had even fewer channels for controlling them on our lighting desk. A single spot light is aimed so it is pointing down from the front at an angle of around […]
Vue Lighting Rig #3: Single Spot Slightly Behind
Monday, October 15th, 2007This third of my lighting rigs for Vue following on from last Mondays Vue Lighting Rig #2.

Vue Stereo Image Camera Creation Script
Monday, September 3rd, 2007I was asked by Jim Coe if I knew of a script for creating a pair of cameras for rendering stereo images in Vue. I didn’t but writing one wasn’t particularly difficult. It isn’t a complete solution as it won’t generate an animated camera and it won’t work with cameras that aren’t flat and level. […]
