Alright this requires 2 steps:

- First render the movieclip to a bitmap:

I havent tried it myself, but it definitely should. You might be interested in utilizing either File.applicationDirectory or File.applicationStorageDirectory to resolve to the correct location, see http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/filesystem/File.html
