Statistics inform. Stories Transform.
It all starts with a story
The 6-point narrative structure that moves audiences from awareness to action. Every documentary we create follows our science-backed framework:
Hook, Conflict, Initiation, Journey, Resolution, Jab.
Six steps. The last one, the Jab, is the moment your audience stops watching and starts doing: donating, sharing, volunteering. It's what separates a film people remember from a film that drives real change.

Our proven process.
Storyfinding
Before we pick up a camera, we listen. We dig into your mission, your people, and the raw human moments that your audience needs to feel. The right story is already there. We find it.
Story Architecture
Hook. Conflict. Initiation. Journey. Resolution. Jab. Six points that turn a good story into an emotional experience your audience feels long after the screen goes dark.
Premium Production
Cinematic quality meets human sensitivity. We know how to portray vulnerability with dignity, because in purpose-driven storytelling, how you tell the story matters as much as the story itself.
Get It Seen
A powerful story that nobody sees is a wasted opportunity. We don't just create the film, we make sure it lands in front of the people who need to see it most.
Why us
Why organizations choose to work with us
Authenticity, always
We will never exploit pain for views. Every story is trauma-informed, participant-led, and built on trust. The result? Content that feels real, because it is.
Science-backed narrative
Your brain processes stories completely differently than data. 22x more memorable. We don't just know this, we've built our entire methodology around it.
Told with, not about
The people in our films aren't subjects. They're collaborators. We involve communities at every stage, because the best stories are told with people, not about them.
Meet Jonas
The filmmaker behind buzzup
I'm Jonas Buysens, a documentary filmmaker from Belgium with one obsession: making people care. Not just scroll, not just like, but actually do something.
I believe that the stories we tell shape the world we live in. That belief leads me to telling stories across Europe, always drawn to the people and causes that will leave this place a little bit better than when we arrived.
I work with a trusted team of cinematographers, editors, and producers to make every story as good as it can be. I take on a small number of organizations each year so that every story gets the attention it deserves.
Whether you're an NGO looking to amplify your impact or a business that wants to tell its story with honesty, I want to hear about it. I take on business projects to fund the impact work I believe in.
Coming Soon
