integrate birds into digital media

Since the inception of Hollywood, films have misrepresented our feathered friends. From the classic scream of a Red-tailed Hawk playing while a Bald Eagle flies across the screen, Hollywood films and soundtracks are full of discrepancies when it comes to birds and nature. Get all of the details on your next project right with the help of experts who know the world’s birds. We provide detailed analysis and feedback of your film, music, or written project, and help you choose the correct references and appearance of birds, their songs/calls, to help ensure the natural history is spot-on. Looking for a live bird to appear on screen? There are a variety of legal hoops to jump through in order to use birds in film accurately. Let us help guide you through this process, and do the work for you.

identify birds accurately

Despite a plethora of identification tools constantly at our fingertips (see ‘Resources’) sometimes identifying a single bird can be hard. Take the guess-work out of it by submitting a photo, video, or audio clip to be analyzed and identified by the experts.
