Animating large numbers of huge image files

Hello,

I’ve been using Corona for 5-6 months and now trying to make a small puzzle game.

I need to show the game title as an animation during the start. The designer created a 3d animation and then export it as indvidual PNG files for each frame. Now I need to display them one after other like playing movie frames.

I researched a bit and found the Movieclip library being suggested. I used the library but it takes a lot of time to start the animation on Corona’s emulator. In my android device, the app completely hangs before the animation starts.

I think it’s coz of the image sizes. It’s made for iPad’s retina display ( 2048 x 1536 ) and there are more than 400 images.

Can you guys suggest proper way to do this? Forgive my english, hope I made my problem clear.
