Many thanks to Women’s Audio Mission for sponsoring the student recording competition!

Women's Audio Mission is a San Francisco-­based, non­-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of women in music production and the recording arts. In a field where women are chronically under-­represented (less than 5%), WAM seeks to "change the face of sound" by providing hands-­on training, experience, career counseling and job placement to women and girls in media technology for music, radio, film, television and the internet. WAM believes that women's mastery of music technology and inclusion in the production process will expand the vision and voice of media and popular culture. WAM trains over 1,200 women and girls a year in music production and the recording arts in the world's only professional recording studio built and run by women.
