"Zeev's Journey" centers around a young No'am who is motivated
to find
meaning in suffering when his most beloved possession, his
car, is wrecked
in an accident. Zeev struggles to understand how one can maintain
a
consistent view of the world when bad things happen. His journey
takes
him to wise sages who help him see that one's attitude and
perspective are
the key to being happy with what one has. The story is inspired
by a
Jewish folk tale.
This
animation was part of an attempt to interest American Jewish
children
in Jewish history and Jewish tradition. The strategy was to
bring up-to-
date technology to this field of education.
The
characters in "Zeev's Journey" were designed partly
based on feedback
from a focus group of fourth grade girls and boys from a Jewish
Day
School. These children were consulted in an effort to develop
a list of
necessary qualities for appealing characters.
