Want to animate an inchworm, what is the best way?

General Animation discussion

See subject.

I have no idea what would be appropriate for this kind of movement. Would the cut-out technique be good, quality-wise?

I would create the two main poses with the worm and then using the keyframes and the onion skin, duplicate the poses and adjusting the worm position (I would move the points rather than the origin) make it move:inchworm.sifz (35 KB)
I hope it helps

Thanks a bunch, your way is better than the walk cycle tutorial that I followed. I did manage to make the animation though, yay!

I’ll use your method next.
