Providential Pictures, a newly formed Christian film studio, has inked a long-term, multiple-episode deal with "Insight for Living" to produce the first 3-D animated video series of the show's children's radio drama "Paws & Tales."

The radio drama, created by David Carl, is based on a book by Chuck Swindoll.

"Our hope at 'Insight for Living' is that 'Paws & Tales: The Animated Series,' just like the episodes on the radio, will provide families with more opportunities to discuss the really important things in life," Swindoll said.

"When the opportunity arose with 'Insight for Living' to produce the first 'Paws & Tales' animated video series, I jumped on the idea," said Cliff McDowell, president of Providential Pictures. "The animated series, designed for children between the ages of 6 and 10, is safe entertainment with Christian values that parents can trust."

The first episode, Seeing the Unseen, will be available this fall. For U.S. distributor information, contact Tim Hetchler of Wescott Marketing at 1-800-788-0442. For Canadian distributor information, contact Gordon Penner of A2J Distribution at 1-204-325-9618.
