What do i have to do to switch scenes? I made a walk cycle scene now i wanna move to a new scene. Do i save each individual scene? If so, how do i do that? How do i put the scenes i make together, import them from a saved file? I have been reading the tutorial and i have found nothing about this subject, what do i do? Somebody plz help me, i'm stuck like my fat uncle Chuck.

If you have created the scenes in separated files you probably have made them starting from frame 1. Follow those steps:
1) Save a duplicated file of each scene.
2) For each duplicated scene use the "Rescale Keyframe" menu entry from Animation menu. move the animation keyframes to start at the proper frame for each scene, depending on your script.
3) In a new file upload each scene (from File -> Import) and place each one inside a new separate folder.
4) Place each separate folder inside a switch layer, and change the visibility of each scene folder accordingly to the animation script.
Finally don't use

Sorry about the small text. I could've swore i made it bigger. Okay, okay, all that sounds awesome. I'm a newbie and i need you to take me step by step. 1)How do i save a scene to a file? 2)The other instruction after, "Save a duplicated file of each scene" is cool. 3)What is animation script?

Uh... the "Animation Script" is... uh... your script... your screenplay... your storyboards or animatic.
