The ACE Eddie Awards are annual accolades presented by American Cinema Editors (ACE), an honorary society of professional film editors founded in 1950. The awards recognize outstanding achievement in film and television editing across various categories, including feature films, documentaries, and animated productions. The "Eddies," as they are known, were first introduced in 1965, evolving from an annual dinner that honored Academy Award nominees in film editing beginning in 1951. The event celebrates the vital role of editors in storytelling and is routinely covered by industry publications.
