Hi Chris,

thank you for your response. I am format agnostic for processing so am happy to 
work with avi etc., however in displaying the final film to the user I think 
I'd need to convert whatever I've made to swf to make it a little less 
downloadable. I'll check out PiTiVi - perhaps I can hack it to work on the back 
of appengine...

Cheers,
J
