ABOUT THE HOSTS:

The Alliance of Documentary Editors (ADE) is a working group of documentary film and television editors and assistant editors nationwide that campaigns for best practices within the industry while improving members’ career sustainability. The ADE promotes a better understanding and acknowledgement of the documentary editor’s unique position as storyteller, writer, and artist, as well as technician. We advocate for better working conditions and codified ethical standards, and champion diversity, inclusivity, and mentorship in documentary post-production.

The Karen Schmeer Film Editing Fellowship honors the memory of gifted editor Karen Schmeer. Our mission is to support an inclusive group of documentary film editors through programs that help them grow as artists and build their community. By investing in editors, we affirm and strengthen the critical role editors play in independent documentary storytelling. Since 2010, we have supported 82 emerging, associate, and assistant editors through our programs. The 2022-2023 Fellowship is a year-long group mentorship program with 30 fellows from across the country.
