Synesthesia was honored with the award for BEST SOUND by the Independent Horror Movie Awards for August 2016.  Erik Goodrich was the Sound Editor and Mixer for the film. 

“Early on in the production, the Director, Alison Kohlhardt, told me the sound needed to be a character in this piece,” said Goodrich. “Then always the dicipline comes by deciding how much is too much. I guess we got the balance right. I’m very happy with the way it turned out.”

The film also garnered a nomination for BEST ORIGINAL CONCEPT.

The Independent Horror Movie Awards’ mission is to “help promote the criminally overlooked but creatively fertile field of indie horror by singling out top notch work with a wide variety of awards.” The awards are announced every two months online and there is no online or public screening associated with the awards.
