DOROTHY'S MISSIONS

DOCUMENT NATURAL PHENOMENA LINKED TO THE EARTH'S ECOSYSTEM AND CLIMAT

The project uses high-altitude observations and immersive VR experiences to raise awareness about environmental issues, highlight the interconnectedness of natural events, and partner with environmental organizations to communicate their efforts in innovative ways.

COMPLETED MISSIONS

Our most famous film is Mission Umbra, where Dorothy ascended to capture the eclipse from space in April 2024. The film will be distributed by HUBBLO in domes and festivals worldwide in 2025.

MISSION STRATOS
COMPLETED

Testing a custom 11K ultra-high-definition 360° camera in collaboration with Canadian (CSA) and French (CNES) space agencies, in order to create the first immersive science-fiction film shot in the stratosphere and contribute to ongoing scientific research.​

OUR CURRENT MISSIONS

Here, you can find a list of projects currently in development, seeking financial partners or environmental organizations to help tell their stories in innovative ways.

MISSION INFERNO
IN PROGRESS

Documenting the wildfires devastating the Rocky Mountains of western Canada through both human stories and advanced imaging technology.
We’ll follow firefighting teams on the ground and Indigenous communities whose lives remain deeply connected to the forests. Using custom-built 360° infrared cameras, we’ll film the fires from the air and from within, combining visual immersion with scientific data collection.

MISSION AURORA
IN DEVELOPMENT

Capturing the Northern Lights from within the stratosphere and explore the intrinsic relationship between the Sun and the Earth, highlighting how our planet's magnetic field protects us from the Sun's and space radiation.

We will head to Yellowknife, located in Canada's Northwest Territories, just 512 kilometers south of the Arctic Circle.

MISSION TORNADO
IN DEVELOPMENT

Following tornado chasers across Canada and the United States to explore how their fieldwork can advance scientific research. In partnership with them, we are developing new custom tools, including high-speed drones, ground probes, and a tiny version of Dorothy, to capture tornadoes from multiple perspectives and, for the first time, attempt to film inside their vortex in 360 degrees. This documentary will plunge viewers into the heart of a living supercell, allowing them to experience from within how these colossal storms form, evolve, and unleash their power.
