Concrete Post Announces New Ownership And Management Structure

One of Soho's best-known post production facilities, Concrete Post Production Ltd has just announced both new ownership and a new management structure.
Concrete Post Ltd was the former limited company behind the well known trading name, managed by three directors Dave Thompson, Terry Bettles and Chris Gilbert.
Now, a new company has been formed by ex director David Cox, who said this week that 'Concrete' would therefore continue as a 'trading style' of the newly formed Concrete Post Production Ltd.
David Cox stated: "Concrete has built up an extraordinarily creative talent base and this puts it in a great position going forward in difficult times."
He said that the new company looks forward to continuing trade relations with historical suppliers and would like to thank SGO, Pixelution, Video Europe, XTFX, Media Lease and others for their support during these changes.
Concrete's new board of directors will be formed over the next couple of weeks, he explained.
Current Managing Director David Cox also revealed: "I am just an acting MD for the time being.
"I want to establish a board from those that hold key positions at Concrete. In other words, I want to empower the people that deal with Concrete's clients on a day-to-day basis, rather than have a level of directors that have no direct connection with everyday issues.
"This will make Concrete even more client focussed and quicker to react to client needs," he explained.
Morgan Sendall, Creative Director, Designer and Producer, is now based at Concrete, and brings with him a wealth of experience such as his conceptual design and production work for titles such as ITV's Formula One, Cricket 2020 and Panorama.
He was also responsible for designing many other prestigious titles including BBC's 'Horizon' and 'Best of British'.
Concrete's current projects include Christmas commercials for Staples, an Audi commercial for China, a commercial for Land Rover, a computer-generated advertisement for Red Bull, as well as high-end graphics titles for various channels.
