Filmed in 2016, the same day and in the same location where
Leslie Odom Jr. was filming his music video
Leslie Odom Jr.: Autumn Leaves (2016), where Thomas made an appearance as an extra.
That video clip and this short, which was originally premiered as a Snapchat story available for only 24 hours until this re-release, were filmed the very next day Leslie Odom Jr. won his Tony Award for portraying Aaron Burr in
Hamilton (2020).
Thomas had attended the rehearsals for that Tony Awards Ceremony as an audience guest as well as the after party where he had the chance to meet part of the cast of "Hamilton", who in turn made appearances in several shorts, back in the Vine era of the series.
