My real name is Alfonso Benjamin S. Barrameda. Yeah not a lot of people know that, apparently. You know who you are. I'm a 14-year old kid who aspires to be a writer, director and editor when I grow up.
I started making YouTube videos in 2015 by the name Ponchi, in the age of 8. I made weird iMovie trailers with my classmates in school whenever we were granted to use our iPads. A year later, I used YouTube to make introductory videos for people, along with only making "announcement" videos for upcoming projects that never pushed through. I abandoned Ponchi in 2017.
In 2018, I returned. I made actual sketches instead of announcement videos that lead to nowhere. These sketches usually varied around 10 seconds to 3 minutes. I also made Gaming videos because I was into that at the time. I permanently abandoned Ponchi in 2019 as I did not enjoy making YouTube videos anymore. I also wanted to improve my tarnished image of generally being a weird fucking idiot.
In late 2019, I started having an interest in arthouse films. This led to me making random edited artworks for Instagram on my private account. Most of them would look nonsense but appealing in hindsight, but would usually convey an underlying meaning which would be personal to myself.
I started making a few sketches in 2020, labelled "1 minute sketches", duh. Today, I only like 1 of the 4 sketches I made.
On December 25, 2020, I posted the first ever sketch involving an unnamed character. People call him the Green Jacket Man. Showing up not only on Instagram, but in a lot of school projects, not only mine. This character was inspired by James Lee's NOX Character.
The era of Green Jacket Man ended in April 14, 2022, from a music video I made. It was for my Visual Arts project. It was supposed to be my own video off of an already-made song, which was Cotard's Solution by Will Wood and the Tapeworms. I made my first short film shortly 2 months after, entitled Bottle Show. It was for another Visual Arts project. I think this is my best work yet. This is just the beginning. Just wait til' I become the next Spielberg, shitheads.
