A Work In Progress

From Recap To Review is a podcast that watches a lot of television for one. What we aim to do is to give you a brief recap of the film and then a brief review of the film in a short time span so you the viewer, do not have to waste your time. There are reviews on shows and movies that are just as long as the show of movie themselves but if your were going to watch or listen to that, you have watched the content instead. We are here the fix that. All we ask for is 10 to 15 minutes of your time. 

From Recap To Review

At AMAZAN STUDIOS we specialize in podcasts, short films, miniseries and storytelling. Come for the names, stay for the education.
