You'll need to use jQuery to call your webservice asynchronously and then display a loading gif or you can use the asyncupdatepanel from the ajaxcontrol toolkit. But we have so little information as to what you have that it will be hard to help beyond that.

Is this a website or not ? You don't say that it is, and WCF does not mean that it is. if it is, then it's easy, you just show the image and your browser animates it. So, I think it's not. There's a class on Code Project somewhere for showing animated gifs in your winforms app, I suggest looking at that.
