You have to learn to walk before you can run. As Genete says, do ALL the tutorials first. After that there are MANY ways to do the things you are asking.

I am new to this as well.

Go through the tutorials.

Do one thing at a time, don't try to do all at once.

Repeat the tutorials, there is a lot to learn, but it is worth it.

Don't rush.

There has gone in a lot of thinking into this program how to best help the animator to create his art, how to enable and get out of the way. The basic user interface reflects this. As an animator you don't want a complicated looking interface, but rather something that is easy to understand and modify. Once you understand the basic principles of the program, it is simply a matter of combining what you know to get the results you want.
