Attached is the BasicScript example taken from the cookbook along with two sample scripts: startdrag.as contains event handlers for dragging around the shape created by the java code when the mouse is down, visible.as shows how to change the visibility of the shape when the mouse is down.
These should give you a reasonable start by showing you how to create movie clips and how to control the clip using actionscript. From there it should be simple to extend the code to implement what you want. Take a look at the
BasicImage example to see how to display shapes. From there it should be simple to extend BasicScript to display the image in the movie clip.
Let me know if you need any help.

Stuart
