animation help

Hi! I am trying to make a small animation movie with sketchup. I want for example to have a tree with one leaf and this leaf to be dropped at the ground. This is on a standard camera view, with movement of the leaf object (group). Can someone help me about how to do this animation (if it is possible to be done).

Thanks in advance

    SketchUp is mostly used to create animations of camera fly-throughs.

    Animating the motion of an object within a model is a lengthy and involved process that requires the use of a bunch of layers and scenes, which effectively create an effect similar to a stop motion animation sequence.

    Sorry to say, but in order to animate something as fluid as a leaf being blown to the ground, you're probably better off using a different software, like Cinema 4D, Maya, etc.
