Amidst the grave inequities in Hollywood’s gender representation, sound departments stand out as having one of the lowest percentages of women. Only 5% of sound designers and supervising sound editors are female. The Exploring Audio Workshop series was created to help introduce a new generation of female and gender-expansive media makers to the power of audio storytelling. The Reel Stories Exploring Audio Workshop is funded by Radio Drama Network.
