HI and welcome to Carrara world. I am working in a serie of tutorials for Carrara and I did a basic one about animation. There will be more about this subject in the future, but I will suggest that you take a look at this series from Jeff Lew:

He dont use Carrara, but you can learn a lot about animation principles.

My basic tutorial you can see here:
