Zaky's Adventures is a computer-animated film for children that deals with global warming.

The project is a partnership between production firm One4kidsand Ozmotion Pictures, a Parramatta-based animation company.

Writer and animator Kevin Comty began the company when Disney's Australian studios closed in May 2006.

He and other former Disney animators have worked on the 38-minute computer-generated film for close to a year, first drawing and designing the characters, then using adobe flash to create the animation. It is detailed work with each scene taking about 25 frames a second.

In the film Zaky, a purple bear, gets a letter from his pen-pal Mowy the polar bear, who must close his extreme snowboarding school because global warming is making the snow disappear.

So Zaky and his friends go on an adventure to Snow Cap Mountain to help and learn about global warming.

``It's done in a way where kids will be able to understand it because Al Gore is probably a little bit heavy,'' Mr Comty said.

``And because it has animation and graphics it will keep the kids a bit more switched on,''he said.

``It tells simple things about helping with global warming like turning off things when you are not in the room and learning how easy it is to recycle.''
