I don't know the specifics, but your best bet is to look here:

You'll probably need to make different frames to animate it. I'd recommend GIMP to manipulate the images. 

 

Gun Labs has a good tutorial.

You'll also probably be best served with Slade3. 

 

I would also look at the inner workings of Demonsteele to get inspiration. (Since it uses swords.)

Don't be intimidated because a lot of people will help you if you've got something to show.
