AboutMe

Hi, I'm Joanna Gryzewska, the filmmaker behind Visual Beesy

I'm an award-winning filmmaker, videographer and video editor based in Warsaw, working with businesses, brands, founders and creatives in Poland and internationally.

I work across both production and post-production, which means I can join a project at different stages. Sometimes that means helping shape the idea and planning what we need to film. Sometimes it's filming, editing or working with footage you already have. And sometimes it's taking care of the whole thing.

What matters to me is understanding what the video is actually for. A film for a website needs to do a different job than an ad, an event recap or a series of social clips, so I like to think about how the finished material will be used before we start making it.

How I got here

Creativity has been a constant for me for as long as I can remember, although video wasn't where my career started.

Before becoming a filmmaker, I spent years working in organisation and project management. It taught me a lot that I still use on productions today: planning ahead, keeping things organised, communicating clearly and making sure the moving pieces actually come together.

In 2019, I moved from Poland to Canada. During that period I travelled extensively and attended a filmmaking retreat in Thailand, which pushed video from something I was curious about into something I wanted to pursue professionally.

I went on to develop my skills across filmmaking, editing, marketing and visual content, eventually building Visual Beesy around the combination I enjoy most: creative ideas, practical production and turning footage into something genuinely useful for the client.

Today I'm based in Warsaw, but the international part of my work has stayed with me. I work on productions in Poland and abroad, and collaborate remotely with clients worldwide on editing and post-production.

How I work

I'm not a large production company, and I don't try to work like one. When you hire Visual Beesy, you work directly with me.

I like being involved enough to understand the project rather than simply receiving a shot list and pressing record. If you already know exactly what you need, great. If you only have the beginnings of an idea, I can help you work out the approach, what needs to be filmed and what can realistically be created from the material.

Because I also edit what I shoot, I'm thinking about the final piece while we're filming, and, when useful, about how the same production can create more than one asset.

Recognition

My video work has been recognised by the FCP Global Summit Film Festivals, Motion Array and Artlist.

But awards aside, what matters most to me is making good work with people who value creativity, collaboration and a thoughtful approach to video.

Client Testimonials

What clients say about working with me

We hired Joanna to give a hand on video editing. In addition to her skills, she definitely is a person you want to collaborate with!! Creative, humble, true, trustworthy, always looking for solutions to make it easier; it was a great pleasure to work with her and I totally recommend Visual Beesy for your video editing needs and social media content.

Présidente-directrice générale
Joanna is hands-down the most talented video editor I know. She helped me with YouTube videos and content repurposing of Reels for Instagram, as well as graphic creation. I was blown away by her work every time she delivered the assets! She even included captions in the Reels in a way that made sense and looked amazing. Joanna is super easy to work with, always exceeds the deadline, brings in her own ideas, and executes without ANY handholding. I can't wait to work with Joanna again in the future and highly recommend her work!

Before hiring Visual Beesy to create a series of videos for us we met and interviewed several companies and individual videographers for the job. We ended up selecting Visual Beesy because they were attentive and proactive - Joanna came to the meeting with already few ideas of how to make this project a success. She was quick in responding to all inquiries and did a lot of work pre-shooting day to ensure the day of the shoot went smooth. The final product was amazing overall quality to include audio, editing and artistic direction. Highly recommend Visual Beesy and Joanna as your go to person for any Video / Photography related projects.
