Crazy Morning Gymnastics
Wally, our new producer here at Kong Amsterdam, does some crazy gymnastic trickery in the mornings.

Crap blackberry pic taken from the Kong Suites, which has massive windows. Cool thing is our new producer is also a photographer, and we’re getting him a KongCam..
We Are Kong
Dutch industry magazine Adformatie wrote about our new agency Kong today - we even made it to the front page!

Yep - this is a dutch article, but we will also have an english pressrelease here when its done.
Amsterdam This Morning at 07:00

Beautiful quiet morning in the city today.
Note to self: Should try and get up early more often.
A Nice Day at Hyperisland

Hyperisland invited us at Kong to come over to Karlskrona, Sweden to do a four hour guest lecture which we really enjoyed and we hope the students did as well.
Thank you Hyperislanders for an interesting day and we’re looking forward coming back some time!
Update: I just found this blog post from student Johanna which is a nice summary of some of the stuff we were talking about.
We are looking for a Producer - Update
So we’ve landed in the Dam and are setting up a new shop! I’m really excited about it and will tell you more about it here soon. There was an article in the The New York Times last week that said “Not since the Dutch Golden Age has Amsterdam seen such a creative boom”. So if you want to boom along, read on…

This pic was taken in the morning on the Prinsengracht while cycling to work - basically the weather is like this every day in Amsterdam.

We’re a digital start up based in Amsterdam working on international clients. We’d like to think we’re very cosmopolitan and multicultural so don’t worry if you aren’t a local. You will need to speak English, but you don’t need to speak Dutch.
We’re looking for somebody who knows the ins and outs of producing digital projects - it would help if you have some experience in advertising, TV/film or event production but its not necessary. What is necessary to us is that you really love what you do.
We’re working on a whole range of stuff, traditional digital projects but also projects that (we think) haven’t been done before, so you’d have to be a bit of a visionary type person who is not afraid to try and realize things some people think can’t be done.
We’ll offer a really nice workplace and will pay good money to whoever fits this role. This can be either a parttime or fulltime gig. You can start tommorow, but its also OK if you start in a few months.
If you are interested or know of someone, please send an email with your cv.
