MICHAEL!



AMY!



NINJA here

was so cool 2 meet you guysx

our little LA trip was such fresh n furious educational experience ;)

we back in africa now finishing up our new album!

it's called DONKER MAG

means 'dark force'

nearly nearly finished!!!

gonna be hitting our next DM music video soopa-doopa soon!

just wanted to let u know where we at in relation to what we chatted about in our little meeting ie:

1-CHAPPIE MARKETING

2-ZEF FILM vs ZEF TV



so 1st up:

1-CHAPPIE MARKETING

as we mentioned b4 we are 100% into plugging DIE ANTWOORD'S entire music career into the CHAPPIE marketting campaign...

...between now and march 2015 when CHAPPIE drops...

(so that DIE ANTWOORD works as a dynamic live marketing tool for the CHAPPIE movie)

our new DONKER MAG album is dropping in april 2014...

...and we gonna be touring the world from may 2014 to march 2015...

(hitting the hole of the US...state to state, plus canada, s.america, uk, russia, hole of eu, oz, and japan etc etc)

gonna be making 5 music videos for DONKER MAG in the breaks we get in between touring

we would dig to keep plugging CHAPPIE into all our DA shit (from now till the march 2015 drop date)...

maybe subtly at first, like mentioning CHAPPIE in a skit on our DM album...

then if u into it...

we start to feature CHAPPIE a lil more prominently in our vidz....

...like CHAPPIE making little cameos in our DA videos closer to the films release (as NINJA and YO-LANDI'S enthusiastic robot son)

(we will obvzly run everything we do related to CHAPPIE past you guys 1st...)

so that later when CHAPPIE'S powerhouse movie marketing campaign drops, posters and trailers etc....

...DIE ANTWOORD are already fully integrated with the CHAPPIE campaign

then...because DIE ANTWOORD'S identity was been represented so authentically in the CHAPPIE movie...

...we would be super down to premiere CHAPPIE trailers b4 our DA live shows which will be fkn wild!!!

plus we LOVE all the other cool ideas the Sony marketing team have...

...like DIE ANTWOORD doing surprise unannounced shows on some US campuses directly after special CHAPPIE premiers (like Eminem did with the 8MILE movie)

...like the movie screen rises at da end of da movie and DIE ANTWOORD are on stage right behind the movie screen ready to rock, like BAM!

plus GERRY and JARED and their team have lots of other hype ideas that we totally into!

then....

in relation to life after CHAPPIE...

2-ZEF FILM vs ZEF TV

we learned sooooooooo much during our week in LA relating to tv and film...

and we've pretty much worked out exactly what we wanna do moving forward...

but before we fuck with TV...

i want to direct a feature film called ZEF starring Ninja and Yo-landi

the ZEF movie is an 'origin' style film of how Ninja and Yo-landi came into being...

we've been developing this ZEF film for years...

and all our DA music videos we've made flow straight out of the ZEF film idea

NINJA has directed every single one of our DA music videos, working with different co-directors from time to time

i want to make the ZEF feature film for $2million...and shoot it in South Africa

the ZEF script is nearly finished...

...it's written by NINJA, YO-LANDI and DUTCH SOUTHERN (a screen writer friend of ours from LA)

i've asked some of our hollywood actor buddies (who are big DA fans) to cameo in our ZEF movie:

NINJA and YO-LANDI are brother and sister in the ZEF movie

i asked CHARLISE THERON to be NINJAS jealous girlfriend

i asked JACK BLACK and DANNY DEVITO to be 2 corrupt South African cops

i asked CHANNING TATUM to be a ruf thug who fucks NINJA up in an epic street fight

GUY PEARCE is also fuckin keen to cameo on this joint

JOHNNY DEPP also digs our shit (haven't asked him yet tho... gonna ask him soon!)

etc etc etc

everyone i asked is super excited to read the script!!!

i want all these cameos to work in similar way as the TRUE ROMANCE cameos...

like how CHRISTOPHER WALKEN, DENNIS HOPPER, GARY OLDMAN, BRAD PITT etc etc... all killed it SO HARD with their short little powerhouse scenes

this ZEF movie is gonna be so fuckin fun!

plus the ZEF script is the coooooolest shit we've ever fucked with EVER!

it's like the vibe of all our DA videoz fucked in2 one big bad ZEF-ass movie!

u gonna cry wen u read it ;)

x



i love the idea of making ZEF for 'cheap' (like Reservoir Dogs)...

...but that this relatively low-budget film is mindfuckingly GOOD and super POP (ie super accessible!)

..and that the ZEF movie slides flawlessly out of the hype of the CHAPPIE movie..

...i also love the style of dropping this $2M ZEF film with major distribution so that it makes a dumb amount of cash...

ok..

now...

moving onto ZEF TV

i love that the ZEF movie sets up this ZEF world and all it's main characters, and establishes a strong visual / thematic tone

this will all get set up tough as fuck with NINJA directing the ZEF film

then...

at the end of this epic little ZEF film...

NINJA and YO-LANDI decide to start a rap-rave band called DIE ANTWOORD

which flows right into the idea for our ZEF tv series:

NINJA AND YO-LANDI'S LITTLE RAP-RAVE BAND BLOW THE FUCK UP...

... AND DIE ANTWOORD COME TO AMERICA

me and YO-LANDI have worked out a crazy cool style of feeding US writers our actual real-life stories...

...that they then gonna flesh out into an ongoing tv format

the ZEF TV series will have exact same vibe / tone as the ZEF feature film (that NINJA has set-up directionally)

enabling NINJA to be more hands off for the TV series

kind of like how David Lynch set the tone for TWIN PEAKS with his pilot episode...

i also dig the punk / fuck you style of directing a $2M dollar film that blows the fuck and makes a fuck load of cash

and stamps NINJA hard as a director

then NINJA stars in the ZEF TV series with YO-LANDI

but the door is also open for NINJA to fuck with directing other films afterwards...

...so that NINJA can make stupid amounts of money for himself and his partners ;)



we gonna be hitting all this stuff ZEF with MRC

and it would fucking cool if SONY was in the mix from now till the end of ZEF Season 5 and beyond x

just keeping u da loop

love u guys

spk soon

xx
