Today is a sad day for post-production in Amsterdam. After 30 years of service Condor has become an unforgettable part of Dutch post-production history. However, unable to adapt to the new market situation, having too high overhead-costs and the growing pressure for working with ever lowering budgets, it was an inevitable faith. Being part of this fantastic team for just one year, this bankruptcy comes for me as a shock, making long hours and working on incredible projects. An immense challenge lies ahead now for the managing staff to look for a solution for continuation of the business in a new form.
I wish all of my colleagues the best of luck!
