After having a consultation with Kate, I think it would better for me to start with testing animation method now before moving onto the AR part. Since my purpose of doing this workshop is to have a preliminary skill which enables me to create a simple animation, I chose to start with a tool that I’m more comfortable with - Procreate. Kate provided me some useful links and I’ve been browsing tutorials and useful sites.
Some useful tutorials and sites that I’ve looked into:

My goal at this stage is to have fun with making simple animation as a beginner and try not to panic.
