Please read the last blog for more information. As for the voices below, we will try and find people that are interested other than those of us who have acted already, so as to give them a chance. However, as I have listed female roles below our male voice actors may have to put on comedic female voices since none of the girls in our group feel comfortable with voice acting and we don't intend to force them to do something they don't want to do.
Overall, the following can be adapted if necessary or combined with others. They are just meant to be examples we can draw from.
First idea:
Dad: Ha! I knew lighting the fire was a good idea to keep ourselves warm!
Mum: But honey, it looked awfully dusty, should we have made sure to clean it first?
Son: Ahhh, but mum! That would have taken AGES! And it's FREEZING!
Daughter: Yea mum! More heat dad! More heat!
Dad: Ok, ok!
The dad throws a couple of new logs onto the fire. The fire gets bigger and bigger until a pair of evil looking eyes appear. The family all look curiously at it.
Evil fire: You're doomed!
Then, the fire rises higher before emitting a cute little spark/flame.
Cute fire: Hello!
The family all smile at it, finding it adorable.
Family: AHHHH!
Daughter: It's soooo cute!
Son: Can we keep it mum?
Mum: Oh I don't know sweetie... is it dangerous?
Dad: Dangerous? HA! He's fine! Aren't you my little...
Before the dad can finish what he was about to say, the cute little flame/spark suddenly sneezes sparks that start to set the furniture on fire! Causing other mischievous ones to appear and cause 'Gremlin' like havoc.
Family: AGGGHHH!!!
The family quickly run out of the door as a non gender specific fire fighter bursts through the window with an extinguisher in his hand, putting out the fires inside.
The text 'PUT OUT THE FIRE!' then appears, ending the opening.
Second idea:
Cut to the fire fighters chilling inside their station, sleeping, playing hoop / pool etc. Suddenly the fire alarm goes off causing exclamation marks to appear above their heads.
Fire fighter: Fire fighters! Assemble!
They all quickly get changed through a dressing montage e.g. hat, jacket, boots and perhaps even underwear before jumping onto a fire truck and speeding along the road to the burning house.
Third idea:
Drunk: Ah man! This is going to taste greeeat!
He happily starts to sizzle the bacon.
Drunk: Now all I need to do is... is...
Suddenly, he falls asleep standing up. As he does so a fire erupts out of the pan and eats his bacon before spreading to other surfaces and causing lots of mischievous flames to appear. The drunk wakes up as a result of all the noise and smoke.
Drunk: Ah? Wh-whats going on? On no... not again!
The fires then start to poke him with flames as he runs around the house trying to avoid them, screaming drunkenly.
Meanwhile, from outside a fire truck can be seen speeding to his rescue.
Fourth idea:
Husband: Ahh, after a long day's work I think its time for a nice healthy cigarette...
He lights his cigarette with a match as his wife happily enters the room.
Wife: Put your feet up honey, I have the oven on so dinner will be done soon. In the mean time shall I light the fire?
Husband: That sounds like a capital idea! Perhaps we can burn some junk mail whilst we're at it!
Wife: Anything for you sweetie!
The wife nods her head happily, lighting a fire in the fire place before throwing a stack of papers into it nonchalantly. As the smoke rises the fire alarm tries to ring out, only to (cartoon like) die by coughing, like a old man. The husband and wife then raise their drinks for a toast.
Husband and wife: To a happy healthy life!
Suddenly, as the say this all the sources of fire ignite. This causes their fire hazards to ignite as cartoon fires appear and run amok.
Wife: Oh no! Who could have foreseen this!
Husband: I certainly couldn't!
The husband then rolls up his sleeves and pulls out a blanket.
Husband: I shall try and put out the fire myself! Stand back dear...
He throws the blanket over one of the fires which appears to be extinguished, before setting alight the blanket and roaring at him.
Husband: Well... I'm out of ideas!
Wife: Perhaps we should leave this to the professionals honey...
Husband: Good idea! Lets leave post haste!
The two then put on their coats and the husband opens the door.
Husband: After you...
Wife: Thank you.
As the two leave the fires start to laugh menacingly. Cut to outside as a fire truck speeds to the rescue.
