What are the main courses in sets & staging

There are 2. Geometric transformations and Mathematics of rotation.

Am I going to make a move

Not in this session. This is just to show you how Pixar does it. But there are several sites that help with animating things. Stop Motion is the best way to start, in my opinion.
