Petition to include editors (ACE)

Jun 28, 2012

We got an email from our friends at the ACE that we think that we can help out with:

Dear ACE, CCE and MPEG members,

During the past year, the American Cinema Editors Board of Directors has been actively pursuing film festivals and awards presentations, domestic and international, which do not currently recognize the category of Film Editing. The Motion Picture Editors Guild has now joined with ACE in an unprecedented alliance to reach out to editors and industry people around the world.

The organizations listed on the petition already recognize cinematography and/or production design in their annual awards presentations. When you sign this petition, you will help to send the message thatEDITORS ARE IMPORTANT TO THE CREATIVE PROCESS AND SHOULD NOT BE OVERLOOKED at annual Film Festivals and Awards Presentations. The signatures collected will aid in persuading the organizations listed to add the category of Film Editing to their Annual Awards Presentations.

PLEASE VISIT:

TO SIGN OUR PETITION

The link will soon be available on the ACE and MPEG websites or directly through EditorsPetition.com. We would like to target as many industry people as we can.

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely,

The Committee for Creative Recognition,

ACE Board of Directors, MPEG Board of Directors
