Atmosphere Weather Forecast is the only weather forecasting company in Europe dedicated exclusively to the audiovisual sector. In the last year they have participated in major international projects such as: The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power T2, and Venom 3, The Envoys T2 and in national projects such as the series Marbella and Sagrada Familia T2.
Meteorology, the scientific study of climate and atmospheric conditions, may seem a foreign subject to the audiovisual world. In reality, however, meteorology plays a crucial role in the creation of memorable images. Whether through the choice of filming locations, the creation of compelling atmospheres or the depiction of extreme weather events, meteorology and film are intricately intertwined in ways that can be surprising.

Extreme weather conditions, such as those we have experienced this past week with the presence of droughts in different areas of the country, can pose a risk to the film crew. With the right weather information, measures can be taken to ensure the safety of everyone on set.
- How does Atmosphere Weather Forecast work to ensure a good shoot?
- Planning: Before starting a shoot, it is essential to know the expected weather conditions so that activities can be properly planned. For example, if rain is expected, indoor scenes can be scheduled or the shooting schedule can be adjusted.

- Visual consistency: Weather forecasts help to maintain visual consistency throughout a shoot. If a scene is shot on a sunny day and then on a cloudy day, an expensive correction may be required in post-production to match the scenes.
- Safety: Weather conditions, such as thunderstorms, heavy rain, or snowfall, can severely affect any shoot, with huge costs to the production.
- Efficiency: Knowing the weather forecast, decisions can be made about the equipment and resources needed. For example, if a sunny day is expected, additional umbrellas or reflectors may be needed to control the light.
- Saving time and money: Changing shooting plans on the fly due to unexpected weather conditions can be costly and time-consuming. Weather forecasts help to avoid unpleasant surprises and keep the shoot running efficiently.
