Create shadow of a building in ArcScene

Hi,

I want to create shadow of a building at different time in ArcScene but I am a beginner of using ArcScene so I am not familiar with this. I am using ArcGIS 10.2.2 version.

I tried to use "sun shadow volume tool" in "visibility" in "3D analyst tool" but I do not know how to present the shadow in different time and in animation.

After that, I found some reference on the internet, it is using "Skyline" and "Skyline barrier" tool of "3D analyst tool" to create shadow of the building. However, I am not understand how to define the position of the Sun and also how to create an animation to present the shadow in different time. Or can I do this in ArcScene?

Thanks a lot.
