A family studio with a lot of worlds
Aetherwood started as a joke: somewhere between Hollywood and Bollywood. It turned into the place where our family tells stories, from sci-fi audio dramas to a cartoon about a family of worms on an island where everything finds a home.
We run it like a variety show. Several shows live under one banner, each finding its audience, the way short sketches once grew into full series. The goal at the end of that road is an episodic family show.
We don't need it to make us rich. We make it because it's fun, and because the people who listen become part of the story.
Every story lives somewhere in the wood
Our channel is split into three parts of the same forest. Pick the mood, and you'll find the shows that live there.

Where anything can happen. The Island of Eatin', Love Stays, The Mountain.

Small team, home studio, a lot of patience. Every episode goes through the same bench.
WORLD → LOCATION → SECTOR → STATE → VIEW → IMAGE
That's FDDS at work. It's how a tavern looks the same in episode 1 and episode 9.
