The Galaxy Studios Group is a cluster of companies dedicated to the fine arts of film, music and sound technology. We are situated in Belgium and for more than thirty-five years our studio complex has been a world class beacon of advanced technology for sound recording and film post-production.
Mollywood is the Galaxy Studios Group Financing and Tax Sheltering company. We help producers of films, series and performing arts to raise funds with the assistance of flourishing Belgian tax incentives.
The tax Shelter system is a fiscal arrangement that encourages Belgian companies to invest in audio-visual work, performing arts and video games.
Mollywood was founded in 2009 and has raised co-investment for over 130 national and international projects. We’re delighted that projects we’ve worked on have been selected by numerous film festivals around the world. We have been involved in several commercially successful European feature films, but we also love to work on ‘arthouse’ projects, theatre, dance, classical music, circus and other major spectaculars.
Zilvermeer Productions is the Galaxy Studios Group in-house production company. Founded in 2014, our production house develops, co-produces and finances film and TV projects.

Auro Technologies was formed in 2010 to develop and promote Auro-3D®, an immersive 3D audio technology that was developed at Galaxy Studios in 2005. In 2011 a partnership was struck with the Belgian display hardware manufacturer Barco to incorporate Auro-3D® in their digital cinema setup. Renowned studios such as Lucasfilm and Dreamworks immediately embraced the format when the first installations of the Auro 11.1 format were deployed. Now the major part of the leading studios worldwide are releasing movies in the Auro-3D® sound format.
There is a huge growing interest in the Indian market for the technology. Recently Auro Technologies has made substantial alliances with partners in other markets. Auro-3D® has been integrated in several brands of home AV receivers (a.o. Datasat and Steinway), and Audiokinetic will implement the Auro-3D® Tools into their game audio middleware Wwise®.
