Hi Inbar, I've done a project that involved the animation of several large bitmaps (1024 by 768), and I can tell you that it is hard to get them animated smoothly...
You can preload the bitmaps, but keep in mind that animating such large bitmaps just is hard for most machines. I've noticed that a lot of ram makes it eassier to get this result, but that might be in conflict with your target audience... IS it possible to split the animation in smaller peaces? This would really help you... OR just use video where you need it the most. I know this sometimes isn;t good enough, but it is the only advice I can give you...
