‘Headnoise’ Animated Short To Feature Original Score and Songs by Matthew Wang

Variety has announced Headnoise, the new animated short co-written, produced, and narrated by Shaquille O’Neal. The film will feature an original score by composer Matthew Wang, who teamed up with rapper and producer Tone to provide original songs for the film.

From the article: “The film examines the internal and external pressure to succeed, as told through childhood friends Rashaun and Damon, two talented basketball players from the same inner-city neighborhood. Both are NBA hopefuls, but Rashaun is the more coveted pick among college recruitment scouts. Secretly, however, Rashaun’s passion is sculpting — and while his journey to follow his dream is plagued with systemic disadvantages, he is determined to be undefeated by his internal head noise.”

Production on the film is currently in the final stages and a 2022 festival rollout is planned.
