For 6-11 year olds…and kids at heart?
Cartoons have been in an upswing in the last five years or so, and that’s largely thanks to Frederator Studios. The company’s Cartoon Hangover experiment on YouTube resulted in the fabulousBee and PuppycatandBravest Warriors, and that’s not even including their TV contributions likeAdventure TimeandMy Life as a Teenage Robot. It’s pretty good to hear they’re the ones handling an animated series based on Double Fine Productions’Costume Quest.
Debuting on Amazon Prime next year, theCostume Questcartoon will be aimed at “six to eleven year olds,” as the kids use strangely super-powered costumes to fight off baddies in their town of Auburn Pines, according to Business Wire. Coolest thing about the announcement overall isThe Adventures of Pete and Pete‘s co-creator Will McRobb on deck as a story editor and executive producer. There’s so much talent attached to this.
I’m sureCostume Questcan be a great cartoon for everyone, but something much more effective for kids. You can see the first bit of art from it in the gallery below (viaFrederator Studios’ Tumblr page). Besides, if Frederator’s Fred Seibert’s coy teasing may be inferred too much into, they might havesomething built more for adults on the horizon.
