"Zenescope Entertainment has released pilot footage from its Grimm Fairy Tales animated series. The comic book company has given fans an advance look at the first three minutes of the Kickstarter-funded project on its YouTube channel.      The comic book adaptation raised $188,970 on the crowdsourcing platform, exceeding its donation target of $175,000. &amp;quot;Kickstarter gave us the opportunity to ask the people if they would want our Grimm Fairy Tales animated series, and they responded yes,&amp;quot; said Zenescope in a statement. &amp;quot;We didn&amp;#039;t have to go through the Hollywood process, and still came out with an A-plus product, with a ton of talent on board. &amp;quot;We hope more individuals with great ideas use Kickstarter as a way to make their projects a reality, but also to gauge the interest.&amp;quot; Venture Bros co-director Jon Schnepp is heading up the project, with Game of Thrones star Lena Headey lending her voice talent to the show. Zenescope&amp;#039;s ongoing Grimm Fairy Tales comic book series reached the milestone of 75 issues in July last year. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
