Unity: Animation not working (c#)

Question

I'm following a video tutorial on YouTube about player animation using blend trees. I followed the person's tutorial to the tea and I haven't received any errors in the console, the only problem is, that when I played the game my player is not playing the animations no matter how many times I clicked. I created a click to move script (c#) for my player to move and (as mention) followed the person's tutorial exactly. I checked the animator window (whilst playing the game) and saw that my player Idle state was still playing and not playing the walking state, no matter where I moved. I think it might be because of :

 void Update () 
 {
   if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) 
   {
     target = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);
     target.z = transform.position.z;
   }
   transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, target, speed * Time.deltaTime);
 }

But I'm no genius! What I want is for my player to do exactly what the video tutorial did but using (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)). Can anyone help me with my problem! Thank you, here is my full code:

  using UnityEngine;
  using System.Collections;
  public class move : MonoBehaviour 
  {
    private Animator anim;
    public float speed = 15f;
    private Vector3 target;

    void Start () 
    {
       target = transform.position;
       anim = GetComponent<Animator> ();
    }

    void Update () 
    {
      if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) 
      {
        target = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);
        target.z = transform.position.z;
      }
      transform.position = Vector3.MoveTowards(transform.position, target, speed * Time.deltaTime);
      float inputX = Input.GetAxis ("Horizontal");
      float inputY = Input.GetAxis ("Vertical");
      anim.SetFloat ("SpeedX", inputX);
      anim.SetFloat ("SpeedY", inputY);
    }
    void FixedUpdate () 
    {
      float LastInputX = Input.GetAxis ("Horizontal");
      float LastInputY = Input.GetAxis ("Vertical");
      if (LastInputX != 0 || LastInputY != 0) {
        anim.SetBool ("walking", true);
        if (LastInputX > 0) {
           anim.SetFloat ("LastMoveX", 1f);
        } else if (LastInputX < 0) {
           anim.SetFloat ("LastMoveX", -1f);
       } else {
           anim.SetBool ("walking", false);
       }
        if (LastInputY > 0) {
          anim.SetFloat ("LastMoveY", 1f);
       } else if (LastInputY < 0) {
           anim.SetFloat ("LastMoveY", -1f);
      } else {
           anim.SetFloat ("LastMoveY", 0f);
       } 
    } else {
       anim.SetBool ("walking", false);
   }
 }

From what I can see, you are not setting the animator input variable to anything so you will need to put in your if statement an animator variable editor.

if (Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0)) 
  {
    target = Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);
    target.z = transform.position.z;
  //right here
  }
