Who We Are
After 25 years in business, we’ve learned a few things here at Amazing Studios. Creating great work and having a great time are not mutually exclusive. Consistently delivering great work is what got us this far, but life is too short not to have fun on set. We’re proud to be a veteran owned company and embody a ‘work hard, play hard’ mentality. Above it all, we value relationships. We don’t look at our work as just another project, but as an extension of an ongoing relationship with people who are passionate about what they do.
Our Core Values
Integrity
Be someone others can trust
We consistently chose to conduct ourselves and our business with the highest moral principles and professional behavior. We are transparent, honest, and ethical in our interactions with team members, clients, vendors, and the public. This willingness to do what is right, even when no one is looking, is the foundation of our core values.
Originality
Create work that sets us apart
Through teamwork and collaboration, we create original content by motivating each other. We think boldly, embrace risks, and push past creative comforts.
Excellence
Always strive for greatness
When we aspire for perfection, we arrive at excellence. We evaluate our work, with a desire to grow. We are attentive to each detail, and are driven to surpass our previous accomplishments.
Humility
Stay humble
We will always have new challenges to tackle, and will always work together to find the best solution. We overcome our weaknesses through the strengths of others. We are self-aware, and carry ourselves with quiet confidence. Through our actions, we earn the trust and respect of others.
Relationships

Our success is measured by the strength and longevity of our relationships. Our relationships are earned by consistently demonstrating integrity, originality, excellence, and humility. These values bond team members and the clients we serve, fostering an environment of individual success and well-being.
