You need to set hold keyframes for things you want to be still until you need them to move. A new keyframe will animate from the last keyframe, even if that last keyframe is on frame zero.

If you are more of a visual learner, like me, here is the hold frame synthsin75 is talking about.

Wolf character from the Mothers Day folder, in the Characters section, in the Anime Studio library.
