Hand Walking Animation

For this animation, we had to do a walk cycle. So while I was trying to come up with a idea for the animation, I was imagining how the walk cycle would be and was using my fingers to practice and that's when I decided why not an actual hand as the walking animation. I used Photoshop to draw the puppet and did the animation in After Effects. This was probably one of the more fun and enjoyable project to do. I liked the fact that I didn't draw every single frame, just move pieces of the puppet.
