Welcome to Summer Camp Island, an animated series created by Julia Pott. Based on the critically acclaimed short screened at Sundance Film Festival, Tribeca Film Festival, and SXSW, the series follows best friends Oscar and Hedgehog as they learn that their camp is on a magical island and that instead of making potholders, they’ll be making friends with monsters and yetis. The counselors? Well, they’re witches. And the cabins? Those were built by aliens. The moon? OK, it is the same ‘ole moon, but here, he talks. As Oscar and Hedgehog spend their summer days having strange encounters with mystical creatures, they begin to discover their own magical potentials.
“Summer Camp Island” is produced by Cartoon Network Studios and will be available to stream on HBO Max June 18th.
