Start reading tutorials and script from scratch.
If you have any problems ask on the forums.

Even if you don't plan on doing the scripting yourself, you need to be able to know what the engine is capable of doing in order to effectively plan ideas for your story.
I recommend these tutorials http://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl2/tutorials/scripting/article
They helped me get a sense of how this language works
Then, heres the page with the engine functions http://wiki.frictionalgames.com/hpl2/amnesia/script_functions
Have a good long look at all these, and what implications they have for what you can achieve
There are a good deal more tutorials on the wiki page, and questions you have may well have been answered previously in the Development > Support forums (which is where this thread should have gone!), so do a search before asking
Finally, you can get a scripter on board and be able to tell them what you want, knowing whats possible to do. And if no one wants to help, well, you've learned the basics - its a simple system once you get used to it
