MTV underwent a brand refresh in 2021 and we were approached by MTV Base to create new idents for the channel. They wanted something that was fresh and highlighted different dance cultures across the African continent.

"The lock down has really brought out many mixed emotions.
The one that I can say for sure regarding our president is pride.
This may seem crazy but the reason I am posting this video today is because I feel that Covid and Cyril might be a bit like The Rugby World Cup.
It’s is a great unifier and shows the empathy that we have for each other as a country. And that makes me feel proud, the same way we all felt proud and celebrated in the streets together when we, against all odds. Won the RWC in 95, 2007 and 2019!
Thank you to Grid and FNB for entrusting us with this project that superseded all our expectations.
May we all be together celebrating in the streets again in the near future"

Comedy Central, Heritage Day and Spitfire’s Katlego Baaitse. Serious?
Hola, heita, howzit – it’s Heritage Month, and there’s no country on earth that mixes it up quite like South Africa does. And no Director that likes mixing up people, comedy, performance and storytelling quite like Spitfire’s Katlego Baaitse.
Invited by Comedy Central to work with great comedic talents such as Mashabela, Peach van Pletzen and Schalk Bezuidenhout, and with cameos from musicians like Mpumi, Donald , Kurt Darren and Leah, Katlego created a series of tongue-in-cheek music videos celebrating South Africa’s resilience, diversity and, most importantly, our unique brand of humour. Demonstrating once again Katlego’s natural affinity for comedy and his ability to coax outstanding performances from his cast.
Spitfire can create outstanding performances for your work too. Contact us now to find out how to get your (creative) hole filled. Seriously.

Spitfire’s Katlego Baaitse gives the winning answer to KFC ‘s Family Feud
Hey you! Yeah, you reading this! What happens when the legendary international star and original King of Comedy, Steve Harvey, breaks the fourth wall to call you out? Well if you’re Spitfire, you provide the perfect answer for Ogilvy and KFC: director Katlego Baaitse.
Katlego worked closely with the renowned comedian, casting a perfect, highly expressive performer to play against Steve Harvey’s larger than life presence. Spitfire and the team successfully managed the twin challenges of navigating the complexities of COVID and shooting with a seasoned international star in the limited available time, creating a comedic showdown between a loveable Jabu and an effortlessly funny Steve Harvey.
