It’s a 2 000-year-old love story, tenderly updated by Katlego and Chicken Licken.
Let’s face it, navigating the potholes of love’s rocky road has never been a piece of cake. And while mixing metaphors often leads to a sticky end, mixing Spitfire Director Katlego Baaitse with Chicken Licken is always a delicious prospect. Once again, Chicken Licken’s agency Joe Public called on Katlego for his innate understanding of storyline, spectacle and – most importantly – humour, in directing their latest hilarious take on history.
And, on the other side of the camera, who better to guide us through love’s intricacies than Baba Valentino? We follow Baba as he first corrects Cupido’s aim in ancient Rome, then through history as hapless lovers need all the help they can get. Right up to the Ama 2000’s, where Baba Valentino the 42nd brings out the big guns to tenderise the toughness of love.
Katlego’s talent for directing humour really shines out here, with flawless performances from each of the perfectly picked cast, along with purpose-built sets for the different period scenes – including an eighteenth century woods cabin and a specially created 1920s car.
Katlego’s brilliance for comedic timing and spectacular styling, along with some craftily inserted Easter eggs, make this one of the most entertaining Chicken Licken ads to date. And that’s saying something. Contact us today to find out how Katlego can do the same for your work.
