Why Now?
Imagine: it's summer. The heat, the freedom, the lack of work bogging you down. You wake up in the middle of a beautiful forest. The smell of campfire lingers in your hair. And then. Screaming. Just straight screaming, echoing through the trees. It's a 10-year-old who found a dead mouse in his stuff because he brought snacks even though you told him he couldn't have snacks in the cabin. This is followed by another camper who literally forgot to pack underwear. Literally underwear. Looks like you're going to have to find him some. Not to mention the one that peed the bed last night, the one that didn't sleep because they were up all night crying, and the other one who is still sleeping, and refuses to get up. Time to get a water bucket. Or a new job.
​
But no, you're stuck. You committed to this job, and you're staying. But oh, how you remember a few months ago when your biggest stress came from that essay you had due. When you were the one not sleeping and then sleeping in.

Currently, college students don’t see themselves represented on screen so often, but now, with streaming becoming so big, college students are one of the readiest groups to jump on streaming and watch something in their free time.
As a recent college graduate, the energy of the college experience on screen is exactly what someone in the space is looking for: tired, lovesick, homesick, overworked, underappreciated, and having the time of their lives. That’s college, and that's camp.
