"The Heat Is On" is a demo project which we hope to use to gain additional funding for a larger project. Participants will receive credit and the opportunity for plenty of work at a higher pay scale if the funding comes through. The caliber & style of this project must match that of the animation on the following site (scroll down and check out the cartoon with the knight and the dragon at the bottom):

An interior close-up shot of Elvis. It doesn't have to be complicated w. backgrounds. Here's a shot or three of him:

We see a hand holding a pair of tongs, inside of which is a US nickel. The nickel is held over a flame and we close-up on the face of the nickel. Ben Franklin starts to sweat, the metal turns red hot, and Ben's hair catches on fire. Then he utters a famous saying of his (I'll provide the audio voiceover).
