Had a bit of fun and threw together a quick mockup of one of the scenes. It's very rough and by no means the final draft but it gave me a good idea of how the puppets and backdrops will work together.
The scene was very simply created by nesting the composition containing the walk cycle within the composition containing the backdrop. I then added keyframes on the position element of the walk cycle to have him walk across the screen. I need to figure out how to get the puppet to to stop moving once he reaches the end of the window!
Though the walk cycle is very rough and needs a lot of fixing, I actually quite like the sort of stomping effect it has as he leaves the room! It has its own charm to it.

It was a good, quick test to have done as it's really given me an idea of how After Effects works in terms of scene building. Once the pieces are all there, it's surprisingly easy to put something together!
