What tools in After Effects were used to animate these characters?

Hi,

These are the charcters in question - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olPDt0d3ecM

How were the characters animated? I'm assuming After Effects but what aspect? I'm heading into 4th Year Graphic Design at Uni and have a few ideas one being a music video.

The video will feature a version of the attached character who I want to animate but at the moment I'm not too sure how to go about it.

i've seen this done in flash, but not sure if that's what you're looking for.
it just uses pivot points to move the limbs.
