Hey people,

I am noob to Video editing and I have made a simple home video and am looking to add a few after effects to it...more like funnier ones. Most importantly, I would like to know how to add a small cartoon figure that I can bring up in the bottom of the screen with some funny moves and pop-up messages. I hope I am able to get the message across...please let me know if I have to be more descriptive. Also, is there is a good place/urls that I could start reading?

Thanks...you guys rock!!!
