"We Count! A Patriotic Musical Extravaganza (in 2D)" is a musical tribute to how - this election season especially - it's going to take some time to count.
Featuring the voices of Jim Parsons ("The Big Bang Theory") and Broadway star Barrett Doss, the animated video makes a 3-minute musical case for why 2020 will be unlike any other election, and why we may not know who wins every race on election night, and - with such high levels of voter enthusiasm, more mail-in balloting than ever before, the threat of disinformation and candidates gearing up declare themselves the winner – it's more important than ever to take a deep breath, chill the f*** out, and take the time to count.
"We Count!" is executive produced by Steve Bodow, formerly the executive producer of "The Daily Show with Trevor Noah" and "Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj". Music and lyrics are by Grammy and Tony winners Benj Pasek, Justin Paul ("Dear Evan Hansen", "La La Land") and David Yazbek ("The Band's Visit", "The Full Monty"). Animation provided by 321 Launch. Funding for the creation and distribution of the piece came from Investing in Us and Reid Hoffman.
