In L.A.? Meet the Oscar nominated editors!

American Cinema Editors will hold its annual roundtable of the Oscar nominated editors at Grauman’s Hollywood Egyptian Theatre February 27th, the night before the Oscars.

If you’re a fan of great editing, or have been following along with the Art of the Cut series, there is a unique opportunity in L.A. the night before the Oscars to hear the six Oscar nominees (Star Wars has two editors) the night before the Oscars.

The roundtable, titled “Invisible art/visible artists” will be held February 27th at Graumans Hollywood Egyptian Theater at 6712 Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood, CA at 10:30am. They are expecting a sell-out crowd. 

I have asked whether this event will be streamed or recorded in any way and have not heard back from ACE. If I hear back about any chance of “tuning in” to this event from outside of Hollywood, I’ll post an update and send out a tweet to my followers.

The panel will consist of Hank Corwin, ACE (The Big Short), Magaret Sixel (Mad Max: Fury Road), Stephen Mirrione, ACE (The Revenant), Tom McArdle (Spotlight) and Maryann Brandon, ACE & Mary Jo Markey, ACE (Star Wars: The Force Awakens). The panel will be hosted by ACE’s president, Alan Hein, ACE.
