Nordic Glaciers
IVAR Studios
Nordic Glaciers is a mesmerizing odyssey back in time through Europe’s natural history. An immersive experience currently in the making for fulldome cinema, we blend natural history, captivating visuals and urgent scientific calls to action about climate change.
By leveraging the powerful fulldome format and letting people travel back through time and space, we can let people experience how our world, our mountains and our glaciers have transformed in the last century.
The Story
What did Europe’s glaciers look like a century ago? In our story, a family of glaciologists travel back in time to find out - inviting today’s students to tag along and see the impact of climate change for themselves.
Using high-resolution fulldome capture and innovative 3D workflows to bring 100 year-old archive images to life in 3D, we’re making an immersive fulldome film experience to kindle a collective commitment to understand these melting chronicles of time.
