video in a visual novel
So I was wondering if it's possible to implement a video or a gif for cut scenes using renpy and how would you go about implementing it?

Re: video in a visual novel
The link above should help you a lot.
Note that on Android devices, video playback is only supported as fullscreen, so you cannot use video as a background for anything (including menus) on that platform.
GIF, graphics interchange format, is a horrible, HORRIBLE format that should never have existed - it was however, the precursor to PNG (portable network graphics), and later, APNG (animated PNG).
You can use static GIFs, but not animated GIFs.
If you want animated images, use a series of PNGs and piece them together using Ren'Pys very powerful Animation and Transformation Language - ATL.
