Brusjan

What Brusjan does

Brusjan AS is a privately held, Oslo-based creative production studio (Norwegian public limited company form, Org nr. 920 007 562) founded in 2014 and operating with a 1-10 person agile team. The company delivers end-to-end creative production services spanning advertising, film production, motion graphics, 3D animation, visual effects, sound design, and AI-enhanced animation for Norwegian enterprise brands, advertising agencies, broadcasters, festivals, government bodies, nonprofits, and music artists. Its commercial model is project-based professional services with bespoke quoting per engagement; no standardized pricing tiers are publicly disclosed, and customer acquisition runs through direct outreach, agency partnerships, and portfolio-driven referrals rather than a self-serve or productized channel.

The studio's technical capabilities combine established production tooling (Blender, After Effects, 3D scanning for live-show visualization) with applied generative AI used for animation video generation and AI-driven image animation. Brusjan's distribution of work is overwhelmingly Norway-domiciled, with revenue exposure to enterprise marketing campaigns (7-Eleven, DNB, Folio, Altibox/Netflix, Ahlsell, Jordan), public-sector awareness campaigns (Østfold Kollektivtrafikk, Lotteritilsynet), nonprofit and political content (UNICEF Norway, SAIH, AUF), and festival promotion (Øyafestivalen since 2018, Jugendfest/Momentium 2025). Notable quantifiable outcomes include Norway's most-watched music video in 2021 (TIX "Fallen Angel"), a Team 7-Eleven cycling revival campaign that generated millions in organic reach, and multiple nominations for best Norwegian music video at Kortfilmfestivalen i Grimstad (2021, Seeb and TIX) and Bergen Internasjonale Filmfestival (2022, Bendik).

The company is independently owned with no disclosed venture or private equity backing. Leadership comprises Thomas Stenerud as Daglig leder (CEO-equivalent) and Øivind Bolstad as Produsent (Producer). The business is services-led with no named product portfolio, no app, no public API, no disclosed patents or trademarks, and no subsidiaries, meaning the operating model is the studio itself: a small, talent-driven creative unit monetizing bespoke production engagements and selectively layering AI animation as an emerging differentiator within the Norwegian market.
