Hi Daniel,

I appreciate your input, thank you. As for the source files, there is no standard, they can be of any quality and any format but the eventual output just needs to work on a PC, Mac, iOS device and other mobile and tablet devices.

I'm not sure what the output files will even be which is pretty much why I'm looking for resources from people who have been there and done that.

Once again, thank you, hopefully other people will chime in and I'll also be doing my own research.
