The Making of Shackleton
Armed with an enormous amount of research and first hand accounts, the directors carefully planned how to bring this historical tale to IMAX® screens.
Most of the crew had visited the desolate landscape on previous productions, and although they were well prepared, the adversities of Antarctica constantly threatened. Through of stormy seas, and torturous temperatures, the filmmakers were driven by their obligation to represent the heroic accomplishments of Shackleton and crew with historical accuracy and engaging storytelling.
The IMAX format is a natural fit for the Shackleton story – the beauty and scale of Antarctica comes alive on the giant screen and brings this amazing story to life for an entirely new generation. The themes the film supports – passion, leadership, resilience, problem-solving and more – are equally as relevant and important to today’s youth as they were in 1913 to Shackleton and his men
