Kabillion Debuts New Avatar Program, Halloween Programming

LOS ANGELES, October 19: Kabillion,
the multiplatform kids’ program service, has launched a new user avatar system,
as well as a variety of Halloween-themed programming.

The new avatar system will
enable users to personalize their Kabillion experience by creating their own
interpretation of themselves. Users can pick from a male or female shape and
add personalized features, from eyes, ears, nose and hair, to skin color and a
wide variety of clothing and accessories. Special Halloween-themed looks will
also be made available this month. Each user’s avatar can be viewed by other
Kabillion members with the click of the mouse, and new avatar items will be
added in the coming weeks and months.

Kabillion will also
feature special Halloween-themed episodes of Bobby’s World, Pet Alien, The Invisible Man, Staines
Down Draines and Tootuff. The live-action series Kablab, featuring teen hosts Brandon and Alina, will also
offer viewers ideas for Halloween parties as well as a preview of new content
on the channel this month. Kabillion viewers can also download Halloween-themed
features like animated Bobby’s World and Kabillion Squid wallpapers and IM icons. Everything at Kabillion
is free to the user.

Launched in January 2007,
Kabillion is available both as a free video- on-demand channel and as a free
online broadband site (www.Kabillion.com). Part of the MoonScoop Group,
Kabillion offers animated and live-action kids’ series entertainment on both
platforms. Kabillion is owned in
part by Taffy Entertainment, East Coast-based REMIX Entertainment Ventures and
Germany’s EM.Entertainment.
