Founded in 2000 by Fry, Radical Axis is able to provide clients services including creation, execution and delivery of broadcast ready content. Originally operating out of a storage closet at Cartoon Network, the company quickly expanded to its own facility in Midtown Atlanta. Since then, the studio has expanded its headquarters three separate times to meet the needs of its rapidly growing client base.

To date, Radical Axis has worked on more than 75 television episodes and by the end of 2006 expects that number to reach more than 130. In addition, Radical Axis is wrapping up work on the full-length animated feature film based on Aqua Teen Hunger Force. In addition to its work on animated television series, the company has a commercial division devoted specifically to providing animation and design services for television commercials, promos, title sequences and network IDs. In 2005, Radical Axis's8217;s commercial group averaged a new spot every 3.5 days and is expected to surpass that number by a large margin in 2006. Able to handle commercial projects from start to finish, Radical Axis has worked on projects for a variety of businesses including Cartoon Network, Kellogg's8217;s, Turner Broadcasting, L's8217;Oreal, TNT, Wal-Mart and Campbell's8217;s Soup.
