Fogle brings weather series ‘Storm City’ to Sky Atlantic, Sky 3D

Sky Atlantic and Sky 3D have commissioned a one of a kind four-part series, hosted by Ben Fogle, the captures the effects that the Earth’s natural forces can have on the human environment. In order to try and understand the natural disasters which can dominate our news, the*series will look at the science behind the destructive forces and hear witness accounts of what it feels like to be caught in the midst of nature’s fury.

Using advanced engineering technology and science, a team of experts set out to recreate the impact of natural forces to investigate what the effects are.

Filmed on a mix of real-world locations and sets in both Canada and the UK, the team simulate what happens during earthquakes, extreme winds, avalanches and floods. Cameras were fitted to a purpose built two-storey house as weather conditions are reconstructed and tests carried out to fully demonstrate the catastrophic damage that extreme natural forces can cause.

Using 3D cameras, every move is captured, blow-by-blow for Sky 3D and 2D for Sky Atlantic/HD. Viewers are able to visualise the impact on everything including people, buildings and the infrastructure of a city.

Ben Fogle said, “This is an extraordinary series to work on and it will look incredible too. I’ve been staggered by the scale and how much I’ve learned about the effects that nature can have on our environment. I hope people enjoy watching it as much as I’ve enjoyed making it.”

Filming for the series is currently taking place in Canada, and will reach screens in Summer of this year.
