=== Women in film editing === In the early years of film, editing was considered a technical job; editors were expected to "cut out the bad bits" and string the film together. Indeed, when the [[Motion Picture Editors Guild]] was formed, they chose to be "below the line", that is, not a creative guild, but a technical one. Women were not usually able to break into the "creative" positions; directors, cinematographers, producers, and executives were almost always men. Editing afforded creative women a place to assert their mark on the filmmaking process. The [[history of film]] has included many women editors such as [[Dede Allen]], [[Anne Bauchens]], [[Margaret Booth]], [[Barbara McLean]], [[Anne V. Coates]], [[Adrienne Fazan]], [[Verna Fields]], [[Blanche Sewell]] and [[Eda Warren]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://critics-associated.com/a-tedious-job-women-and-film-editing/|title="A Tedious Job" – Women and Film Editing|last=Galvão|first=Sara|date=March 15, 2015|website=Critics Associated|language=en-US|access-date=2018-01-15}}</ref>
