<b>The new development of the map of the coexistence of man and nature has aroused thinking</b>
From the insect version of the first big movie in the "Insect Story" series, "Siege of Troy", to the sequel's land, sea and air full of hardcore adventures, the main creative team has provided more possibilities for the "Insect Story" series. Regarding the island, one of the main adventure scenes, Helene Giro, one of the directors and screenwriters, said that the "Insect Story" series has a long history with Guadeloupe. When the creative team was working on the second season of the animated series four years ago, they considered coming to the island to shoot. This time, "Insect Story 2" can also be regarded as the completion of everyone's wish.
Compared to the first one, the sequel adds more scenes from the human world. The director said: "This is an inevitable part, we can't pretend that humans don't exist, but they don't overshadow the protagonists, but only exist as supporting characters to promote the development of the plot." "If adhering to the dialogueless style is the restraint of the main creative team on the anthropomorphism of insects and the necessary means to retain the authenticity; then facing up to the traces of human existence in the insect world is precisely the unique display of the creative team's harmonious coexistence between man and nature."
