Hi,
I'm not sure I can be of much help (hopefully Taco will have a look),
but just a few thoughts:

1. This one's probably very simple: there's the /insertauthors macro
for inserting the whole name of the author. But how do you insert
just the last name of the author?
If you just want the last name, you can use \cite[author][<citekey>],
but I'm not sure if this what you're after, maybe you'll need to tell
us more.
2. This one, on the other hand, is likely to be rather non-trivial:
the bibliography needs to be broken up into several categories of
sources. For example, audiovisual sources, newspaper sources and
books should be listed under separate headings, somewhat like this:
BIBLIOGRAPHY
I. AUDIOVISUAL SOURCES
[some sources]
II. NEWSPAPER SOURCES
[...]
III. BOOKS
[...]
I've tried to decipher the source code of the Bib module but as I'm
not particularly fluent in TeX, I haven't been able to make much
headway so far. I'd appreciate some hints on where to start with
this. I don't suppose there's any existing code for something like
this? Maybe I'd be better off writing the bibliography by hand?
That sounds harder. You basically need three separate bibliographies,
each of them sorted in some way. I'm not certain the current
implementation of the bib module can do that (i.e. I'm almost certain
it can't). How do you want to refer to these items in your text?
Again, we'll probably need some more information about what you want
to achieve.
Best
Thomas
