Soft Story Deformation just ain't happening? HELP ASAP

I'm working on this animation at work of a soft story deformation (earthquake engineering), and since I've done similar things before, I tried using FFD 3x3, to simply deform different parts of the building (or shift them, technically). Essentially, I'm trying to show the columns shift farther than the stiff walls of the structure. However, everytime I use an FFD modifier, the building warps...

 

what am I doing wrong?

 

(a diagram is coming soon...the upload utility on this forum isn't working at the moment)... ;)
