Help with creating a hot air balloon animation

Hi guys. I am very new to UE4 and animation as a whole but would like to start with animating a hot air balloon rising above the atmosphere of earth. I was wondering if you guys know any tutorials or how to guides that have been published for this task? Most animation tutorials i found are related with animating humanoids.

I know there is a lot to learn for a newbie like me before i can get this done but i am willing to do the work. I just want to get pointed to the right direction that teaches me by attempting this task.

Thank you.
