While the fire safety and prevention programs the NVFD has held for young elementary school students and seniors have always been a success, they have had trouble reaching students aged 16-25. A huge amount of fires are not seen from this demographic but when they do happen, the effects are devastating. The main causes of fires from this age group are kitchen accidents and fireworks. With students moving out to live on their own, they may not be used to proper kitchen safety procedures which may lead to fires. Our solution was to create a character that would resonate with these students and gain sympathy. We were inspired by the Knoll Sidekicks commercial and a character from Howl\u2019s Moving Castle, Calcifer, a sentient flame. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"&quot;Salty&quot; - Knorr Sidekicks commercial.\" width=\"739\" height=\"416\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AYTkn1w8HUI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>The Knorr Sidekicks commercial we were inspired by<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The three of us sketched out potential character designs and eventually settled on my design of our flame mascot, whom we decided to name Freddy. (The initial idea was to call him Feu-reddy, a play on words with the french word for fire [feu]). A popular art medium these days is clay, with artists using the medium in design to give it a contrasting, popped-out 3D look. Bold, bright, cute designs and illustrations are trendy nowadays. Combining those trends with having a cute mascot would be popular with this age group since they grew up watching cartoons, anime and reading comics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery

The wording on the poster imitates the way teenagers and young adults talk so that it is fun to read and is relatable for our demographic.

We came up with great ideas and were able to communicate with each other with ease.
