Adobe is Listening

Summary: On this episode of That Post Show, we have an epic lineup: Paul Del Vecchio, Paul Zadie, Scott Simmons and Kevin Monahan. We talk about Adobe with Kevin, who was a founder of one of the first -- if not the first -- Final Cut Pro users groups in the world (the SFCutters). Kevin now works at Adobe as Sr. Content and Community Lead for Premiere and After Effects. He chats with us about Adobe products, media management and how Adobe is actually listening to customers.
