The Madison Media Professionals Scholarship

We awarded the MMP 2025 Scholarship to Becca Schwarz at the WAVE Awards on November 13th at Goodman Center Ironworks. Below is a little about Becca and why we think she is very deserving of this award.

Becca attends Madison Area Technical College and will be graduating this December with an Associate Degree in Video & Audio Design and a Certificate in Video Production. 

Becca is skilled in videography, editing, photography, gaffing and sound production. She and her classmates received a Wisconsin Broadcasters Association Student Excellence Award for Madison College TV After Hours. She has an amazing YouTube channel where she showcases her unique creativity style. Becca’s been creating engaging weekly posts since 2023. She’s inspired to put her school and self-taught skills in motion, reflecting raw uncut moments of her life while interacting with people all over the world. Her professional growth is evident through the moments she captures for her channel and she always starts her projects by asking herself  “what if”.

In addition to attending school full time, she is an Intern at nine businesses in the Wisconsin Dells. To name just a few: Pure Sugar, The Grateful Shed, Bigfoot Adventures, Dells Army Ducks, Wild Thing Jet Boat Tours and the list goes on. Becca manages their social media accounts, marketing, photography, customer service and more! 

Becca also finds time to volunteer for voiceovers, photography, camera operation, and behind the scenes work to help others ventures come to life. It’s clear to us that Becca  consistently uplifts those around her by showing up, digging in regardless of the task and celebrating colleagues efforts and success in our industry. 

We see Becca’s passion, resourcefulness and dedication to her craft. This recognition not only celebrates her hard work, but also highlights her potential to shape the future of the media industry with her talent and gifts.
