STORMCHASERS is a tale of scientific discovery and natural wonder that will take audiences on a journey around the planet to experience our most extreme storms and to witness the dramatic--and often perilous--efforts of scientists in the pursuit of understanding weather.
The uncertainty and danger faced by stormchasing meteorologists are mirrored by the problems and risks faced by the film's producers. Using a combination of conventional IMAX documentary filmmaking methods, computer animation, and unique photography, the film will depict the intricate relationship between the drama of nature and the efforts of humans to pursue the systematic understanding of the natural world.
