High Quality Statup and Menu (for VCD)

[uknow]

I'm not sure exactly what i want to do but i want it too look real professional, as if it was Regular DVD.
I was thinking maybe a clip from a movie then maybe a Flash or GIF animation to introduce the menu. Also can i get it to play a animation when i click on one of the menu choices.
Any advice or software choices would be great, i just want one bad ass startup menu.

TSCV can do all this (and more). It's not the easiest program to use but it's free:

Another good program is Uleads DVD Movie Factory. You can d/load a trail ver at thier web site (http://www.ulead.com) or buy it (IIRC it's ~$45). This is an all in one program, will encode and has limited editing features too.
