Battle Camera Effect

Well Im lookin for a way to implement a certain camera effect to go along with Minkoff's Animated battlers, let me explain this a little.

Pretty much The effect make it look like the camera can rotate around the battlers using certain techniques.

First off, the battlers all follow an ellipse on the screen upon which they rotate on. As the sprites are on this ellipse, the sprites are shrunk or unlarged to simulate distance. The backround also moves, and is on a loop. Usually only certain enemy specials might involve the camera moving alll the way around to the enemies side. Also, there would be a need to involve a second sprite sheet, one for front view and one for back view, though this could be made easy by just having one sprite sheet with 22 rows, twice the norm....... well I know Im askin for alot here but if neone could help out, or even explain a way for me to get this done, it would be very helpful, as Im an extreme beginner with script......
Here is a very well done example of what IM lookin for done with flash

Also here are a few videos
And anyone who could help me out with this would be a great help, even if you dont wanna make it, any small amount off advice would be welcomed. Thanks in advance.
