Merging content from CA and Premiere Pro in a final video

Hello

I'm going to start making a 15 min long youtube video. I have a script to do a explanatory video with a puppet in Character Animator. But the character will only be one element in a finished video that must be created in Premiere and After Effects (several clips etc. will be shown as the puppet explains different things). I have no experience with Premiere and After effects so I have to hire someone on Fiverr to edit and finalize the video. My question is; in what order should this happen? Because in practice there are two different productions that have to be merged and fit together, but they have to be produced by both me and the video editor who completes the video, at different times. Do you have any experience and suggestions for me?

Both projects can likely happen at the same time, especially since the puppet is only one element of the video. Your editor can use a still image of the puppet and a scratch/temp track (or the final VO if you already have it) as reference while you're working on the puppet animation. As you finish each shot you can send them to the editor where they can be comped in.
