Syn creates music for Gold Promax Award winning ‘Frozen Moments’ campaign for Channel HLN

Channel HLN’s “Frozen Moments” campaign has taken home a Gold Promax Award for Best Block of Programming Promo or Campaign, at the Promax North America Awards 2019.

Syn Music’s CEO and Creative Director Nick Wood attended the ProMax awards in Los Angeles and was thrilled to be part of the winning team.

“It’s wonderful to be recognised for our work, it’s what we love to do! Collaborating with the amazing talent at CNN is always a great experience for everyone at Syn”.

The promo directed by Dan Gifford via 76 Ltd features 6 stunning vignettes or frozen moments in time and it was crucial for Syn to provide song that was familiar and yet haunting, mysterious and ethereal. Nick and the LA team presented new arrangement they recorded of several old folk songs arranged in a new an unique way and  CNN finally chose Scarborough Fair.

Here’s what CNN’s Whit Friese had to say about the music: “Scarborough Fair, an amazing timeless song made famous by Simon and Garfunkel was the perfect tone and manner to connect the many HLN shows together. Combine that with the popularity of the lyrics and Syn’s unique rearrangement and the spot becomes highly memorable.”
