Micro-mod (or rather one scene) - advice needed. Thread

Hello.
I just wanted to do an experimental, test - let's call it mod - that would be as simple as possible, but would be great for experimenting with motion and light. I mean: One white, soft lit room, and a white animal running in circles inside. No textures, or textures imitating a chalk white. There would be a possibility of shooting this animal, and nothing else. Animal-dog running around the room, and you can just shoot it. Nothing else. No hud, no gun visible, just animal, romm, and crosshair. I don't know hl2 editing at all, but I am a professional animator (3d max) and it would be great to see it in the interactive way. I can do the very good animation of animal running around the room and, but I can't do the interaction, and only using hl2 mod and engine is a best solution.
What would you recommend for good start? As I say, I have no problems with texturing, lighting and animating in max, but I don't know hl2 editing tools at all. And I just want to do this simple scene, not mod, not even a game.

Sorry for my english. Still learning.

Please don't triple post, there is a button for a reason.
