Portfolio’s award winning team (Carl2 and RoboRoach) plans to base its animated action, adventure series on the twelve, astrologically inspired, Zodiac Girlz characters whose following on the Internet has reached epic proportions with more than 400,000 visits per month. Together the two companies will chart a course for cosmic adventure as these sassy girls deal with teen angst and epic adventure using unique powers drawn from their astrological signs.

Portfolio’s just released series Carl2 turns the red hot topic of cloning into a comedic series about a lazy teenager who seeks relief from the drudgery of life by ordering a clone from the Internet. The company has a penchant for seizing pop culture hot buttons and turning them into funny “must see” television for kids. Its plans for Zodiac Girlz are no less ambitious and its collaboration with the Web savvy 3 Muses is a bold initiative intended to shuttle kids back and forth from the Web to their television sets.

3 Muses brings its expert knowledge of branding and web content to the collaboration. Their ZodiacGirlz.com online fans write over 30,000 letters a month, play custom games, send e-cards and get advice from their favorite Zodiac Girl. The site has become a destination spot for tween girls. 3 Muses has also launched a doll line, “The Cosmic Friendship Collection,” featuring the Zodiac Girlz as a collectible play line.
