Back in 2009, I crocheted this tiny bee.
Why? I love bees! And once it existed, I naturally thought: “This bee deserves to be a star.”
So I built a little set, pulled out a green screen, and painstakingly created a stop motion video—frame by frame—by hand. No fancy software, no automation, just me, the bee, and a whole lot of coffee-fueled determination.
Fast forward to today, and I look at that little buzzy project and think:
“If I did this now, I’d 100% ask AI to help edit, animate, colour-correct, maybe even write the bee’s origin story.”
Progress, right?
But there’s something magical about that messy, DIY creativity too—something very 2009-core. I’ll never forget the feeling of watching that first janky little animation come to life.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to ask ChatGPT to help my 2025 self write a screenplay for Bee 2: The Buzz Awakens. 🐝💻✨ and I need to crochet some more bees (AI can't do that yet)
