What's the story?
Hosted by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, CREATE TOGETHER #WITH ME is a YouTube series about the ways people are being creative and building community via the Internet during times of uncertainty.

From combining multiple voice overs of an original poem into a movie soundtrack, to recording songs and music videos incorporating interviews and instrumentals by musicians around the world, it offers examples of the different ways people are turning to creativity to cope with difficult situations, and reaching out positively to others to share in the experience.
