that really depends on what you can get your hands on. I think you need to learn modeling first so that you can understand what is happening when you animate and how to troubleshoot problems that do arise.
There is a lot more to animation than just taking a modeled character and moving it.

You have to rig it which essentially means to set it up with bones and structure for animation.
There are a few other threads on these forums with links to great introductory books and I think you should check those out. The new ones are definitely worth the $40 or so dollars that they cost.

You will find a bunch here.


Peace, love and Anarchy~~~~~~~
