Yeah, I think animation would be a great format for this sort of thing and would open a lot of possibilities in terms of content. I'll check out Xtranormal tonight.

Also, I'm going to forward you the content of an e-mail that my associate Clark Robinson sends out to new recruits; it'll bring you up to speed on Project PM and give you a better sense of what we have to work with. Over the last couple of weeks I've had a chance to get things going with that, am now setting up teams and delegating projects and all that. Am finishing up a column for Skeptical Inquirer that will announce our new Science Journalism Improvement Project whereby we'll match up freelancers with scientists in order to produce superior articles for sale to newspapers and other outlets, among other strategies.

One my project pm guys just set up an IRC room in which we have ongoing discussions about our various projects. Right now it's just me a few other of our main people but we'll be sending out an invitation to our 75 or so members so it should develop quickly into an interesting environment due to the erudite nature of the people who'll be on.
if you want to check it out, download xchat, choose the freenode server, and type #projectpm when it asks you what channel you want.
