<description><![CDATA[yes this is what I would probably do make a cube or something and texture the inside of it and plop it into the muvizu dome to make it all look okay <br/>  <br/> since the textures don't distort so much its also probably the least fussy method me thinks <br/>  <br/> and me you know being a lazy person at heart would pick the easiest way <img src="images/smilies/smile.gif" border=0 /> <br/> <em>edited by urbanlamb on 25/03/2013</em>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[That actually works quite well, although you have to scale the fighter down to reduce the 'warp' effect of the sphere through the camera.  I think that's about as big a dome as you'll be able to import into Muvizu.  Maybe two half domes, with a gap inbetween,so you can still see the stars on the skyglobe?  That might give you 360 degree coverage while hiding the floor and the texture 'pinch' at the top of the skyglobe...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Has anybody already checked a sphere or a ball as background space model ? <img src="images/smilies/headscratch.gif" border="0" alt="hmm" /> <br/>  <br/> Here's a short example: <br/> 1.Outside <br/> <a href="http://u.jimdo.com/www12/o/s91b0dc47c3787744/img/i4f526f6b95813088/1364236698/std/space2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://u.jimdo.com/www12/o/s91b0dc47c3787744/img/i4f526f6b95813088/1364236698/std/space2.jpg" border="0"></a> <br/>  <br/> 2.Inside: <br/> <a href="http://u.jimdo.com/www12/o/s91b0dc47c3787744/img/id8be4c325fe3beaa/1364236648/std/space1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://u.jimdo.com/www12/o/s91b0dc47c3787744/img/id8be4c325fe3beaa/1364236648/std/space1.jpg" border="0"></a> <br/>  <br/> I simply tested a sphere that was imported using Ziggys sketchup mesh (unfortunately, only the smallest of 3 different sizes worked). Maybe somebody can make it bigger, because it's rather difficult to work or orient oneself inside. <br/> To get an idea you can download the set: <a href="http://www.2-weltreisende.de/app/download/4680191714/Space.zip" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a> <br/> or maybe I could upload it to the gallery ?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I gotta say, so far I've had some really good tips from you guys. I'm new to Muvizu, and I'd recommend it to anyone, including no shortage of support from a very helpful forum. I love watching the work others have done here too. Some really good and entertaining stuff. I graduated as a film maker, but haven't done animation before, so seeing the great work of others is a real inspiration. Thanx guys. Keep the fantastic helpful advice coming.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Possibly.. Never really thought of hero movies as sci-fi for some reason although technically I suppose they are. <br/> I was thinking more along the star trek/star wars aliens etc line!]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[yes. A backdrop scaled up (possible the curved one!) and your objects and characters scaled down to maximise the backdrop's effect. <br/>  <br/> That's how I see it anyhoo! <br/>  <br/> D]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[You can use a backdrop panel like a green screen and adjust your camera angles accordingly. Then put your background picture on the backdrop.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I wanted to create a `space' scene, but I'm only given a sky and and ground option and cannot chose one to cover the whole set. And when I do add a sky texture, it always comes from the back outwards, with stars laying flat. Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.]]></description>
