Need help starting animation committee

[supertetelmanma]

Hey, my team has never done anything involving animation ever berfore, so i decided to change that by convincing a small group of people to start an animation committee with me. We do not expect to win any awards(although that would be a plus) we just want to explore another aspect of the "FIRST Experience." we have some experience with the software, although not that much, but we could easily learn it. We also have some ideas for a storyboard. My question is this, does anybody with prior experience in this field have any ideas how we should approach this problem... We pretty much have very little idea of what we are doing. I do not want my team to become discouraged, as my hope in starting this committee was that it would evolve and grow into something great in the years to come... Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
