Format
It has not been officially stated how the film is to be done. Some speculate it as a Flash cartoon and the director himself has hinted at this. However, some of the actors have mentioned being in a live-action or even rotoscoped film. There is some thought to it being an audio drama.
Availibility
Not wanting to confirm any rumours, the director has been quoted saying, "We have access to Stitch's Lair, a fan-site of Lilo & Stitch, so we might play it continuously on the home page if it's an audio drama. However, if it's a Flash cartoon, we'll give it a page for downloading. If it's a film of any other type, we'll just burn some DVDs and give them to family and friends."
