We, as a group, have decided to move forward with a show idea not too far different to the Thank God Your Here franchise. In essence this show will be improvisation-esque. We intend to have a number of sets, all being set up in a manner in which the key components of the set can be quickly moved and altered to change the scenario of the sketch. The "main" actor/comedian will come in to the scenario knowing nothing about whats going to happen, the costume he has been given the only clue. Once he is on the set he will instantly be integrated as the key component of the story line, the actors know whats happeneing and where its going but our unaware protagonist simply has to rely purely on their abilities in improvisation to get them through.
A varying amount of actors will be required based on what situation lines we intend to follow. Its perfectly feasible that we will require between 10-15 pre scripted actors. This could be quite a difficult task.
Another initial problem we have encountered will be the set out of the cameras in relation to the different sets. We only have three camera. Three cameras will not be enough to film 2 different sets. The main problem being the wires to the camera if we do decide to move them, which will probably involve some sort of wire running device.
