3rd person - point and click - animations - visual script

I'm studying point and click, my idea is to have a prototype of a player, in a simple plan, walking in all directions with the following animations in order:

idle - 1 [walk forward,walk left, walk right, walk backward] - 2 [run forward, run left, run right, run backward].

However, what may be simple at first sight, for me is still extremely difficult and I have not found anything on the web.

I would like to know how to solve this, ideas, suggestions. Images below what I already have - I have it configured: point and click system on the screen, working - and the character moving in all directions in idle position/animation.

 

It's disheartening...I don't find anything on the web, nor on the forum.
