There are commands in rvu to rotate the camera around camera center (r),
around a center on an object surface (p), to move the camera (m) etc.
You should set a wider field of view as a command line parameter. When
you are happy, you save the view to a view file.

To be honest, I never felt that comfortable navigating in rvu. So I
choose a number of promising views (using my paper-and-pen-approach) and
do some previews, feeding the view parameters to rvu on the command
line. Usually I imagine where I want to stand, what should be in the
center of the image, etc, so I use rvu as a pure preview.

Of course you can also use any 3d-modeler to find camera position,
direction etc. IT should only be possible to define field of view (or
"focal length").

CU Lars.
