Behind the Skrumps

On Wednesday the Jim Henson Company released the first short videos of The Skrumps on Yahoo! Kids (for a limited time). Viewers are able to see a world-premiere Grumblebelly music video and three exclusive character blogs; and Henson is currently working to bring these ground breaking characters to television with a full-lenght TV series!

If you are interested in learning more about the series, the Henson Digital Performance Studio (HDPS) and the creation of the show you can check out a special "The Skrumps: behind the scenes" video on Henson.com (click here). And if that's not enough for you, you can listen to the latest episode of the Henson.com podcast (click here) - which is all about The Skrumps.

Lastly, I've been getting a bunch of e-mails about who the performers are in The Skrumps. The facial/vocal performers are Victor Yerrid (Wishbone), Allan Trautman (Skrumpy) and Julianne Buescher (Raisins). I'll keep you posted as news on The Skrumps surfaces.
