Powerful machines to support this process, and that has been given to us.

Production to counter

Rafael Laínez, from Azken Muga, argues that "Justin and the value sword It is a project that has soaked us with enthusiasm. Kandor is a company that transmits passion, illusion and talent from the first contact. Providing the necessary equipment for the realization of a 3D animation feature film meant, in this case, in addition to a new privilege, also a challenge, for various reasons: first, for the demand in production and delivery times; second, due to the extraordinary stress to which the proposed infrastructure would be submitted; and finally by the budget adjustments and the financial effort of the moment (first months of 2012, perhaps perhaps in the worst of this crisis) ”.

“Proposing technology with the best performance / price ratio was one of our greatest value contributions, without forgetting that due to a historical affinity of Azken Muga with this sector and for the enthusiasm that Kandor transmits, we gave the best of us to offer the best possible service. Justin as a character is actually the best moral of our humble contribution to the project, a modest young man who gives himself the best of himself to achieve a noble purpose. Different, this was and remains to propose and make available to companies the best technology of the moment with the best possible service and attention, to contribute to local companies developing an autonomous and sustainable industry, ”adds Laínez.
