3D-helper

Im doing a course for a local school (pro-bono, but atleast some real experience) using Flash. Its has a pretty conventional 2D layout.

Id like to add a sort of “helper”-caracter, like an uphotted version of that very annoying dog you see in windows when you want to search for stuff.

At the push of a button, or event, the helper pops up and explains stuff. He should also be in 3D, so that he will easily be differentiated from the background-material.

So if anybody have experience with such a thing, or if you have an idea on how to accomplish it, Id be greatful for your advice.

Is Swift 3d the way to go on this (never used it)?
