    CHICAGO, BOULDER & RALEIGH --

    Postproduction studio 11 Dollar Bill, Raleigh, has added Matt Wade to its staff as sr. editor and creative lead. Formerly with Futuristic Films, Denver, Wade brings experience spanning commercials, digital content, music videos and other media, including recent work for Colorado Lottery, Spotify and American Airlines.

    “We’re thrilled to welcome Matt to North Carolina and 11 Dollar Bill,” said managing director Josh Eggleston. “His skills as a content creator and storyteller will be a great asset to our clients in Raleigh, and through 11 Dollar Bill’s studios in Chicago and Boulder. He is a wonderful collaborator and problem-solver. His positive attitude and fun-loving nature make him someone you are grateful to have in the room.”

    Wade was sr. editor at Futuristic Films for four years and previously held a post as editor at Denver agency Crispin Porter+Bogusky. A graduate of Colorado State University, he got his start as a director and editor of music videos. More recently, he has focused on advertising and branded projects. He collaborated with Denver agency Cactus on several award-winning campaigns for the Colorado Lottery. He also edited several episodes of the short film series The Shadow Campaign for DPS Skis.

    “I take great joy in telling stories, especially when I can make them shine in a way that’s unexpected,” he said. “In addition to serving the director or agency, I think it’s my responsibility to bring something extra to the project.”

    Wade views his new role at 11 Dollar Bill as an opportunity to work on a diversity of creatively challenging projects and help the studio to grow. “It’s a great fit,” he insisted. “It’s a fresh start, a chance to work with clients in a personal way and to build something new.”

    A Closer Look At Proposed Measures Designed To Curb Google’s Search Monopoly

    U.S. regulators are proposing aggressive measures to restore competition to the online search market after a federal judge ruled Google maintained an illegal monopoly for the last decade.

    The sweeping set of recommendations filed late Wednesday by the U.S. Department of Justice could radically alter Google's business, including possibly spinning off the Chrome web browser and syndicating its search data to competitors. Even if the courts adopt the blueprint, Google isn't likely to make any significant changes until 2026 at the earliest, because of the legal system's slow-moving wheels.

    "The playing field is not level because of Google's conduct, and Google's quality reflects the ill-gotten gains of an advantage illegally acquired," the Justice Department asserted in its recommendations. "The remedy must close this gap and deprive Google of these advantages."

    Not surprisingly, Google sees things much differently. The Justice Department's "wildly overbroad proposal goes miles beyond the Court's decision," Kent Walker, Google's chief legal officer, asserted in a blog post. "It would break a range of Google products — even beyond search — that people love and find helpful in their everyday lives."

    It's still possible that the Justice Department could ease off on its attempts to break up Google, especially if President-elect Donald Trump... Read More
