“Birds on Wires” is an amazingly creative one-minute musical short film produced by the Brazilian filmmaker Jarbas Agnelli. According to Agnelli, one morning while he was reading a newspaper, “I saw a picture of birds on the electric wires. I cut out the photo and decided to make a song, using the exact location of the birds as notes (no Photoshop edit). I knew it wasn’t the most original idea in the universe. I was just curious to hear what melody the birds were creating.”

He produced this short video by using the photograph, the score (composed by the birds) and the music created from their score. Agnelli has brought the idea of an everyday experience to life, which turns out to be a story very few people would ever think of telling!

This piece includes a number of colorful photographs and the very creative short film, “Birds on the Wires.”
