DESCRIPTION:
(from Discovery's press release, June 2016) HELLO WORLD! is a six-part series taking a look at the wonders of the natural world through the eyes of some of today's most celebrated musicians. Presented in association with World Wildlife Fund (WWF), the series brings out the universal themes of the artists' music by using it as a soundtrack for the stories of animals in the wild. HELLO WORLD! debuts Saturday, July 9 at 8pm ET/PT with two back-to-back episodes for three weeks. The special will also air as a single block on Animal Planet on Tuesday, July 26. The series is produced by RadicalMedia on behalf of Discovery Channel. "It's a thrill to have six Grammy(R)-winning or -nominated artists working on HELLO WORLD!" says Rich Ross, Group President, Discovery Channel, Animal Planet, and Science Channel. "All of these artists bring a powerful love for wildlife and the environment, and we cannot wait to share these films with families across the world." HELLO WORLD! takes viewers deep into the environments of animals as varied as sea turtles, jumping spiders, rhinos, and hawks as they live their daily lives. Whether they are searching for water, looking for love, or caring for their families, these animals all have a singular way of surviving. Each episode features the artist's vibrant storytelling and one of their well-known songs, as well as a lush musical score.
