Stormchasers is a tale of scientific discovery and natural wonder that takes audiences on a journey around the planet to encounter the origins of the earth’s weather patterns, to experience our most extreme storms—monsoons, hurricanes and tornadoes—and to witness scientists who study and predict weather events. Using a combination of conventional IMAX documentary filmmaking methods, computer animation, and unique photography, the film depicts the intricate relationship between the drama of nature and our efforts to pursue the systematic understanding of the natural world.
