I sympathise with your problem. We currently do a great deal of work for telivision and music promo's. We usually manage to persuade the client to have the 3d enviroments created first and then match up the shots for position and lighting in the Ultimat session. If its the other way around its very much 'suck it and see'. If we want to create truly accurate lighting models we also have to consider radiosity mapping and of course the massive computing overhead this would bring. Dream on. CHRISTOPHER
