Our full list of CCE Award nominees will be announced on April 14!  Please visit our website for more information.

Lifetime Achievement Award

Jeff Warren, CCE

Jeff Warren, freelance film editor, worked in Canada for over 45 years. He freely moved between feature films, television drama and feature documentaries.

Over the years Jeff worked with many of Canada’s top directors including Norma Bailey (THE SHELDON KENNEDY STORY), John Candy (HOSTAGE FOR A DAY), John Fawcett (THE BRIDGE), Sturla Gunnarsson (SUCH A LONG JOURNEY), Colleen Murphy (DESIRE), Don McBrearty (THE INTERROGATION OF MICHAEL CROWE), Sudz Sutherland (HOME AGAIN), John Walker (A DRUMMER’S DREAM), Larry Weinstein (THE 13TH MAN), David Wellington (DEAD AVIATORS), Peter Wellington (JOE’S SO MEAN TO JOSEPHINE), Nettie Wild Blockade and Gary Yates (HIGH LIFE).

In addition to editing, Jeff mentored at The Canadian Film Centre, has given talks and workshops at York University, Toronto Metropolitan University (formally Ryerson) and Confederation College. He has won two Hot Docs Awards, three Gemini Awards, four Directors Guild Awards and a Genie Award, all for editing. He has been nominated many more times, including an Emmy nomination in the U.S.

Lifetime Achievement Award

Yves Langlois, CCE (1941 - 2024)

With a career spanning over six decades, Yves Langlois was one of Canada’s most talented, prolific, and sought-after film and television editors. Born in Montreal in 1941, he began his artistic journey at the National Film Board (NFB) in the early 1960s and went on to edit over 125 films and television series.

A gifted artist and master storyteller, Langlois collaborated with some of the most renowned filmmakers from Canada and around the world, including Gilles Carle, Jean-Jacques Annaud , Claude Chabrol, Christian Duguay, Yves Simoneau and Philippe Borsos.

A mentor to many, Langlois remained a humble and discreet man but was always eager to share the remarkable stories from his editing experiences. His dedication to his craft never wavered, even after relocating to France. There, he continued editing with director Josée Dayan (FRED VARGAS, CAPITAINE MARLEAU) until his passing last October at the age of 84.

Langlois’s work earned him numerous accolades, including a Genie Award (QUEST FOR FIRE), a Gémeaux Award (HE SHOOTS, HE SCORES), a Gemini Award (MILLION DOLLAR BABIES), as well as several nominations. He helped shape the performances of some of cinema’s most legendary actors, including Marlon Brando, Sophia Loren, Tony Curtis, Isabelle Huppert, Jodie Foster, Ben Kingsley, Brian Cox and many others. At the 1997 Montreal premiere of The Assignment, one of his longtime collaborators, Donald Sutherland, who appeared in six films edited by Langlois, praised his immense talent, saying, “Yves, you make us all better.”

Career Achievement Award

Gregor Hutchison (1958 - 2020)

Gregor Hutchison was always passionate about film, along with science fiction, new technologies, and comics. While studying at the University of Western Ontario, he took film theory courses and became truly enamoured. He later enrolled at Toronto Metropolitan University (formally Ryerson), where he earned a second BA in Film Production.

He began his career in the editing department at Nelvana, and except for a few brief stints as a story editor, Gregor dedicated his entire, prolific career to post-production. His extensive resume includes work on nearly a hundred projects, ranging from animated and live-action films to TV shows and miniseries. Notable projects included RESIDENT EVIL, THE HATFIELDS AND MCCOYS, SILENT HILL, and THE NUT JOB. Gregor passed away while working on LOCKE & KEY, a project he was immensely proud of, along with much of his previous work.

He thrived in the collaborative nature of post-production, loving both the creative and technical aspects. Always keen to adopt new techniques and technologies, he fostered a passion for innovation. He formed many lifelong friendships with editors and post-production teams throughout his career. As a respected and influential post-production supervisor, Gregor’s impact on the industry will always be remembered.

Canadian Cinema Editors and the Comité des treize launch The Editor’s Taskbook: Responsibilities and Best Practices

Canadian Cinema Editors and the Comité des treize launch The Editor’s Taskbook: Responsibilities and Best Practices

The Canadian Cinema Editors (CCE) and the Comité des treize are proud to announce the release of The Editor’s Taskbook: Responsibilities and Best Practices, a comprehensive guide designed to empower film and television editors, assistant editors, producers, and their teams. This groundbreaking document has been over four years in the making, and serves as both a reference and a tool for fostering collaborative, efficient, and creative editorial environments.

From pre-production to final delivery, The Editor’s Taskbook outlines every stage of the editing process in detail. It addresses critical topics such as staffing, contracts, workflows, and ergonomic best practices, ensuring that professionals across the industry can approach their projects with clarity, confidence, and creativity.

“We hope that this guide will help editors, assistant editors, producers, and their teams to create rich environments where creativity can flourish,” reads the Preamble. “It describes the key steps in the editorial team’s workflow, and can be used to determine the time needed for each stage in the editing process and identify the role of each team member. Use it. Adapt it. Share it.”

A Collaborative Effort for a Changing Industry

The Taskbook represents a unique collaboration between several organizations dedicated to supporting editors. The Canadian Cinema Editors, a national association advocating for professional development and recognition of editors, partnered with Montreal-based Comité des treize, known for their focus on supporting francophone editors. Together, they have crafted a guide that addresses the nuances of editorial work in Canada’s diverse production landscape. Additional content was generously provided by Monteurs en mouvement, and some sections have been adapted from existing guidelines (the American Cinema Editors’ Best Practices Guide for Post Production, and the Best Practices For Post-Production Archives by the Visual Research Society of Canada). The Taskbook has been endorsed by the Directors’ Guild of Canada, IATSE 891 (BC), AQTIS 514 IATSE (Quebec), and TEMPO, the international film editors’ organization with over 9000 members.

Screenshot 2025-02-07 at 2.34.41 PM

“This project is the result of extensive collaboration and consultation with editors across Canada,” said Lesley Mackay Hunter, President of CCE. “In addition to being a guidebook for editors, it is also an advocacy tool that helps educate producers on the crucial role editors and their assistants play in the filmmaking process.”

Editor Annie Jean of the Comité des treize added, “When we set about creating this guide, our motivation was quite simple: it was a desire to share, to ensure that all our colleagues could enjoy the best possible working conditions. By recognizing the complexity of our profession and the scope of our responsibilities, we wanted to provide everyone with the best possible arguments for negotiating their contracts, while respecting the integrity of our profession.”

Key Highlights of The Editor’s Taskbook

  • Getting Started: A thorough overview of foundational considerations, including guild membership, contract negotiations, and setting up an ideal workplace—whether on-site or remote.
  • Editorial Workflow: Detailed guidance for editors and assistant editors, covering preparation, assembly, cutting, and finishing. These sections emphasize teamwork and effective communication between roles.
  • Ergonomic Best Practices: Generously supplied by Montréal-based Monteurs en mouvement, a dedicated section on creating a healthy editing environment, featuring insights on workspace setup, equipment, and techniques to maintain physical well-being during long hours of work.
  • Management of Archival Material: In cooperation with the Quebec branch of the Visual Research Society of Canada, guidelines for archive handling, including research and tracking, for documentary and unscripted projects.

A Tool for the Industry’s Future

Designed as both a practical handbook and a resource for ongoing education, The Editor’s Taskbook offers invaluable tools to streamline workflows and help set realistic schedules. Its modular structure allows users to tailor the guide to suit the specific needs of their projects and teams.

“We envision this guide as a living document,” said the authoring committee. “As the industry evolves, so too can the Taskbook. We encourage editors and teams to adapt it to their unique circumstances and share their insights to keep our community strong.”

Availability

The Editor’s Taskbook: Responsibilities and Best Practices is available for download as of today on the website of the Canadian Cinema Editors.
