Import an image, move camera around it - need help.

Folks, I am very new to Blender and going through the manual tutorial now (the gingerbread guy).

However I need to figure out in a hurry how to import a 2D image made in Illustrator, give it 3D depth and animate the camera around different parts of it before the final reveal of the logo.

I could use any suggestions and help. I don’t see anything for importing in the index in the 2.3 guide.
