Crunchy - Episode:147

This could give me for our podcast. What Up? I'm Gizzo. That is John Magic and we are back.

Longtime friend in the studio with us as today's guest. I mean I basically know him as a photographer, but I know he is big on making films, so making a filmmaker social media. Yeah, so I'm excited to kind of get to know more about our longtime friend who maybe there's things we don't know about.

Maybe like before we.

Press record, you were even asking do you even know how he got his name Crunchy? I'm actually I don't, and so I can't wait to.

Because you said, you know, I know the story.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, Crunchy's in the building. Gee, what up you guys? What's up? Guys?

What I mean? So I guess, first things first, I know the story, but a lot of people out there may not know it. But where's the name Crunchy come from?

Dude? So I was so young?

What's your real name?

Ricardo? Ricardo? He got the ricord Ricardo. It's okay, So how to crunch crunch he came?

I was in high school working at Taco Bell. Dude, that was like my my work. Uh, pretty much like my work. High school drop pretty much and I don't know, somebody, just somebody, just my aunt was just like, you know, we should name yourself a business, a nickname or something. And right away crunch just kind of just got in my mind. It was the ingredients in the tacos, it was, but I got it right there, shout out to Loope crunch.

And I kind of but once she said, oh, you should come up with a name for business.

Out of high school your or was this high school or out.

Of high school?

I think it was still in high school. We're still in a high school junior.

Because like a crunchy taco. Yeah, were you.

Trying to start a business at that I just had a camera on me and she was like you shouldn't you should brand yourself and I was like, I don't know, like okay, I just thought like it just happened and just I just said Crunchy and it just kind of stood stick. So this is the first recollection I have of Crunchy. The the filmmaker photographer was tell me what year this was. Was you were doing vlogs like on YouTube or was it YouTube?

Where was this? It might have just been a media player.

Huh it might have been my Space y'all.

Oh yeah, but yeah, you were like vlogging and soget can you what about Do you remember what year that was or what made you start that?

I man MySpace though, shees that's.

When I met Crunchy, because I think when I got familiar with Crunchy, he was big on the graphic tip because they were back then. I mean, we see graphics now all the time and everyone knows how to do him, but back then, the only certain amount of people were doing graphics and Crunchy was one of the ones doing him. And he was a younger dude at the time, and I think I had reached Yeah, he was doing graphics

Yeah, because my Space there's a point where you could pimp your pay by doing HTML codes.

Yeah, he would.

These were coders at one point.

Which is which is crazy to think about, right.

Uh.

Yeah, So he was doing that for people's pages, and I just remember like I locked his style because he would do that like the paintball where he looked like paint was splash. Yeah. So I reached out to him to do a fly for me for my birthday?

Was it just a random reach you reached just You're like, let me hit up this.

Yeah, And I think I'd probably message him on my Space at the time, and then uh yeah, yeah yeah. So then we were like working together since then, and he would make graphics for me, like every birthday party, he was doing them. And then eventually he was doing like the photography and he's done a lot of my my shoots and he's done some video footage for me. But yeah, that's my earliest memory.

So let's go back to the vlogs, because that's what I vaguely remember, but I remember being entertained, like who is this energetic, charismatic guy that's from that's doing Fresno vlogs?

Can you kind of talk about those years?

Oh man, I always always put, you know, our talent on the map, obviously, and so like early on, I always had a camera. I always had I don't know, I just always had this little niche with like the graphics.

I would just do it all.

You know, I'll figure it out, even if I if I even if I didn't know how to do it, I will figure this thing out, like even the editing and the photos everything. So yeah, man, I was just doing blogs, you know, like I was just blogging everything. I was just recording everything was even before vlogs was a blog, you know. So I was just everything as it went as it was going on. So that was my little niche.

And yeah, was there a name for that.

It was like a mini show like crunch TV or something like that.

That's what I was.

That's what I called it, Yeah TV. Yea, man, I had a cool little run with everything.

It was.

It was fun, everything leading to me today, so which is crazy.

But what was crazy is you were doing that before vlogs was even a thing. I mean you were putting them on.

It was really like starting off.

Yeah, no one was really posting their stuff on YouTube at the time, but you were putting out these vlogs, which is interesting. And like I said, Crunchy was always ahead of his time because he was putting out graphics when people were really doing it. He was pending out everybody's my Space page.

So again, the recollection I have with meeting crunch was as a photographer because I think you were doing everyone's photo shoot. Yeah, and then that's when I was like, wait, I don't. I don't even remember how we connected. I don't know if you remember, but I was just like, yo, I need you're gonna do the photo shoot for me because you're doing everyone else's photo shoot.

Was your guy? I was your guys this guy, but you were everyone else's guy.

Yeah.

I think that's why we're like, we gotta we gotta work with this dude, because like, who were you working with during those days?

You remember, man? I was.

I know, I was doing the house party stuff early on, and then because you know, it went from high school to like parties to like everybody getting kids, and I just kind of just grew within within everything. Everybody started getting married, I started doing the whole thing.

Weren't you doing stuff with Fashon?

I was doing stuff early on with fashion.

I think that's where I first noticed him. She was doing stuff with Fashon.

Was the goat bro.

I think the last time I was here was at with Shan and I think that's what it was.

And what were you doing at the time, just filming like filmmaker stuff or.

I was literally like just for supporting everybody on the rise too, you know, So like I was supporting, like there was there'll be a party.

So my page MySpace.

Was like like a I don't know, like okay, what's going on this weekend type of thing.

So that's how that was.

That was it, and then it's just kind of just a little, little by little just kind of grew to the whole crunch a brand, you could say, like just me being a personality and everything.

Man, So it was cool.

Would you consider yourself a professional photographer?

Yeah? I could say that. Yeah.

Okay, so you understand the lighting, you understand all that stuff. The how where did that come about?

How did you learn YouTube? University? YouTube wasn't even around all. That's how old that man. We're the old bro. You look the same from what I met you twenty years ago. Know you guys like to say, we all look okay, So how did you learn? Well, you know, what where did that come about? Of? Like, okay, let me go study photography.

It was for sure, like I took a multimedia class in high school. I went to Cart shout us to Cart. They taught me pretty much like the entry level of everything. And then from there I just kind of just just working with people and then just learning, you know, try and error, and it just learned a little by little, bro, like I'd invest into this, you know, just there was a lot of hiccups and there was a lot of

You know, where'd you go to high school?

I went to Edison?

Okay? Yeah, So so what did the passion for wanting to do photography and video and graphics? So, like, where did that come from? Is that I started early?

Man.

I used to have the camp quorder. I actually just filmed everything. And I don't know, just I think in high school just when it really picked up, you would have picked up, yeah, because everybody was started requesting like hey, can you do this?

Can you do that?

And Bro, that was like a for me. That was like a high Like I was like a like it was just like, okay, I'm good at something, so.

Like let me lend me.

That's what it did.

Let me shoot, let me let me keep shooting.

Because people would get so excited for a little ass graphic and I'll be like damn, okay, like this is this is cool, Like I love that feeling, so let me let me keep you know, going with that.

And that's where it landed.

And you were coming up at a time like in the early stages, like we said, were filming, was people filming on their own was starting to be a thing, right, Portable cameras were starting to be better, they would becoming digital, they were becoming cleaner, smaller, and the phones were starting to have stuff. So you were you kind of like lashed onto that right away, and you just, like you said,

Yeah, it was kind of like real recognized real. I feel like that was the whole journey, like like all right, this is not just about views or any of that, you know, It's just all about like the creative side of it.

You know. I think that's what kind of like put me.

You know, it gave people that, you know, I got attention from people like people like you guys and everybody else, you know, because I was, all right, so this kid looks like he's he's hungry for it, and I'm still to this day, I'm still hungry to learn and you know, and take different avenues and everything like that.

So now you're talking about you working at Taco Bell. When when you started doing more and more film photography stuff for people, did you have any other jobs like side which was the side job? The photography stuff? Like how are you making income? Because you have expensive equipment? So did you ever have any other jobs that you were doing or did you just focus on this.

Man shot us to Taco bang bag put me on the map. People To this day, people still talk about that. They're like, oh, yeah, the Taco Bell guy.

I'm like, damn, Like, is this your profile picture right now? You are at Taco Bell? Yeah, with the.

Taco in the side. Yeah, Yeah, that's classic man.

So yeah, So yeah, Taco Bell was definitely one of my jobs. And I think after that had a second job, I don't know, two more jobs after that.

When a bird King d not making a video at Bury King, but I.

Was when I that's when I was kind of trying to keep it cool, you know, yeah, I'm all right, let me not full around any of my foolery.

Yeah and wait, how.

Come did you get in trouble or something? Were you filming? Yeah? Your boy got fired.

IoT to ask him the question. So you got fired from Taco Bell?

Fire from Taco Bell. Yeah, because I was literally making DVDs.

That was before YouTube was a thing. You know, we still had DVD players. I would have like almost like a mixtape video, yeah, and so I would just pass them out during like cruising time.

I was like, you know, just passing to my life rapper. Yeah, Yeahoto wasn't a rapper? What were what was? You got fired because of that? What was the footage in there?

So the video was just like me, it was. It was a screw project. The Taco Bang Bang was a school project. It was for economics and we had to make our own business video with during commercial. So I was like, I was working at Tacobo, so like, might as well just make a like let's pretend this taco shop.

Is my shop.

Yeah, okay, you know, Taco Bang Bang made it for economics.

That's my first straight.

Ah you know project that I ever had for economics.

Yeah, yeah, so low.

Key that was almost it's similar to it went viral.

It went yeah at the time, Okay, and you pressed them on DVDs and you were just passing them out. You're passing them out at Taco Bell I did, I think, I mean yeah, oh man, So you were using Taco Bell to like do this pretend business for your class and they just like weren't having it.

Uh yeah, So all the uncensored stuff that I didn't put up for class, I put it on the DVD, okay, just like me flipping it off me like flashing some cash. Yeah, some little things like that, you know, just like, yes, stuff you shouldn't have done business hours.

Yeah.

Can we still watch that someone? Oh yeah on YouTube?

Yeah? So on YouTube. Oh man, we're gonna have to pull that up. I don't think I've ever seen that, I mean neither.

So if you guys are listening, what do they pull up? Just Taco Bang Bang. Yeah, we're gonna go watch that after the episode. That's but but again, so you worked at Burger King wherels.

That I went to a recycling place. Oh that was the worst because I didn't even know. I was just like applying to every jobs. I was like, whatever it gets me, gets me Like six, like a year later, like this recycling place called me. They're like, hey, you signed an implication. Do you want to work here? Stones like, and I was just like saying yeah. So I worked that not even know what it was, and it was like not just too far away from my house and

So you went in for one hundred percent.

Yeah, I percent, which sometimes I feel like that's the move for some things where you kind of have to if you're if you know, and you're you're positive that you're you have this talent, you kind of have to put all your energy into it, sacrifice, maybe not make that much money in the beginning, and then yeah, just you know, you bet on yourself.

Yeah, you definitely had to bet on yourself.

Was the next because another thing I remember is you kind of focused on wedding photos. Was that a business on its own or was it still I'm a photographer, but you were just getting booked for a bunch of weddings.

Yeah.

Man, Like honestly, the wedding stuff kind of that financially gave me the pretty much like you know, like how don't you can say it? Because I was getting paid for that kind of stuff. So I was like, all right, cool, the little trunks are coming bigger than all these other little side jobs that that.

Funded me, like getting a new camera. Yeah, I knew.

This and getting all this equipment, you could say, and little by little I was just all right now like now I know, like okay, like the little cheap stuff breaks easy if you invest more. You know. It was just like little by little, like it was just learning

And weddings is like where it's at because people are willing to shell out thousands of dollars, so you were able to rack up for photography, videography and whatnot. What do people mostly go to you for? Is it photos or video?

Lately?

I've been doing a lot of video, okay, Like I feel like the video stuff is definitely like a I feel like nowadays everybody like that.

That's like a photographer a radiographer.

They have to learn both things just because you'll get there's more opportunities.

Yeah to do both.

Yeah, to do both because nowadays everybody has a photo friend you know that could do it. But obviously sometimes I'll get people that just want video, and that's where I kind of like fill in the spot.

I've been doing it forever, you know.

So yeah, man, So I think I feel like videos definitely been like a big one for me lately, but still.

I'm still doing both. It's like a half and half on everything.

Yeah.

Yeah, I just feel like it's just like a like I'm good at both.

And you edit your own stuff, right, go to stop shop, sir.

So I want to get Speaking of photo shoots, let's get back to back in the days when we first started like working together, there was this story that I have that I asked Gizzo. I said, you know, I'm gonna tell you this story, but I don't know if I should bring it up.

It happened. It happened maybe fifteen years ago.

This was a long time ago when we first worked together, and I guess I should preface it.

Basically, whatever I say.

Crunch, you can't. You can't switch up the story and get me. Well, anyways, I guess I should.

You can't.

You can't undo what I'm about to tell you.

Okay, all right, So I booked Crunch for a photo shoot, my first professional photo shoot.

I get like.

Three outfits together and he I was living at a house at the time with roommates, and you came over to the house and you set up the whole backdrop in the living room, you put the lights.

I was like, oh, yes, gonna be a photo shoot.

And yeah, you took a bunch of photos of all the outfits I had, and then you know, I asked you, you know, you know, how much is it it is? And then I think at the time I paid you through was it that No, not Venmo, it wasn't it wasn't there yet, like I think.

I think it was PayPal.

And then so I sent you the money because hey, I knew I wanted to pay for a photo shoot with a Crunch.

So I finally got it.

So you do the photo shoot and a few days later, it must have been like four to five days later, I get a text that I was sent money to my PayPal and it was from you.

You like put the.

Money back that I sent And I was like, why did he give me back the money?

And I just didn't say. I just stayed quiet, and I was like, did he do it?

For was he like hooking me up? Because that's what I thought, like maybe he was just hooking me up.

And you just didn't want to ask. I don't know, you're like all right, I'm not going to say nothing.

So yeah, so do you do you remember that? Or no? I need that?

Damn. I wonder what happened, Crunch.

You know I got you, bro, I maybe twenty five dollars each month.

I'm gonna do it my payments. Sorry, I guess I gonna eat.

I wonder if it was a situation like instead of accepting it, like you just declined it by accident or something.

What happened?

Yeah, it came back to me and I was like, all right, and this was and that was the first time like kind of meeting him professionally, So like, you know, I.

Like how you just didn't say nothing. Though I guess you could have said, like, hey, bro, I noticed you sent me this back. Was that on purpose? But you were just like not.

Shit, just stay quiet.

Yeah it's messed up. I actually got the free photo shoot.

I guess shouts out to Crunch for, like I said, his professionalism, because I feel like I'm not photogenic, especially fifteen years ago.

When I was much bigger. And I don't know if there's because.

You put me in so many different poses, but I think the secret was you. You shot me the whole. What is it called when you give everyone the whole?

What you took? Is there a name for that? So I just like the best out of the best.

You could say, no, but you gave me a bunch of Yeah, you get all the rows, you gave me all the rods. Yeah, And there was you maybe took like two hundred pictures and I found like five good ones, but the rest was like, I look horriporal on the rest, and not because of you, It's because of me. But there are like five good ones that I used for like a long time for all my flyers and stuff.

Man, So I got to update that. Oh definitely. Yeah. They've been talking about that.

Yeah. No, I saw a crunch the other day and we were talking about that, and I was telling them there's just something I don't know. It's just maybe it's like chemistry you had with the photographer. I feel like that's a real thing because I've tried other photographers just to get like a different vibe, and I just didn't

Ones and correction.

Yeah, and then he'll ask like, is there any other ones you want me to like edit? And I just think there's just something about having like rapport with your photographer, and I think that's there's like it's like a real thing, and we've always had this this good chemistry, so it's sound. I'm like, yo, we need to do this again. But yeah, crunch has pulled up to my place before with the backdrops ob Yeah, we've drove to like downtown. Yeah, we've we've had some good ones. So we definitely got to

Bro on this next one, just charged me double Yeah, there you go make up for it. Speaking of charging me for the next one. It's more convenient this time for me because I was walking to my apartment complex and I see Crunch come out of the doors. I was like, Yo, what are you doing at my apartment complex?

And yeah, you're you have like a studio there now like that you runt out and.

Yeah, man, I'm right there in downtown, right next door to you.

Yeah. Man, so I'm whenever we're ready for that shoot, I could just walk we walk over.

Yeah, it's just a one stop shot, like we can do it.

Oh now you gotta you guys got to come to me now.

Yeah. Yeah, he was on the mobile tip before.

But still do it, you know, like whenever I need to, you know. But it's it's so much easier now that you guys could just walk in literally on me.

So yeah, prime location too. I love this spot, man, for sure. It's a it's definitely a prime location.

But that's where you do your editing, like your master to studio all day every day.

That's dope, man.

What's what's the what's the next thing that you want to get it into? Like, you know, everybody's doing stuff on their phones with TikTok and and reels, and people are blogging all of times something that you did earlier, and it always felt like you were kind of ahead of your time. Is there something that you want to like dab into more, like what's the next thing for crunch?

Dude?

I always have questions where I'm like, hey, what's the best camera that should get I always have people that are interested, like a lot of inspiring like photographers or phenographers whatnot. So I want to like do something where I could I could do like a workshop or something where I could teach people what I know, Like I don't know it all, but I could teach you what I do know, and I don't know. It could just be you know a lot of people that have been

To do because I always wanted to do like a little mini workshop or something. Now have the space to do it. So yeah, yeah, I say why not?

Do you have a do you have a team or is it literally just you?

No team? Dude?

You ever have you every thought about expanding your business and like putting others on and just sending them out to always.

Been online on the lookout for like, all right, who can I vibe with? Because I just want to.

Like recruit anybody, you know, like I want them to be like I want them to be like a friend or whatnot. Obviously business is business, but like I treat it like like anything else, you know, like if I vibe.

With you or whatever it is, like I would love to have.

A team, but like just it just hasn't happened yet, and you know, just being patient with it, I think plays a big part, don't it.

Yeah, yeah, for sure. I can't remember. But did you ever shoot any music videos?

I did a few music videos, a few, not many, but I did, you know, put my little foot in there. And then I realized I was like, I don't know if I'm made for this kind of stuff. Like I love creating, but I don't think the music video stuff.

I really didn't.

It was no, it wasn't really much on my thing. But I had fun doing it though, So I just kind of just did more of events, more where I can kind of like communicate with people it's more of a hype.

Stuff like that. So that's kind of where I.

Go at something I see you doing. Now you're kind of jumping into correct me if I'm wrong. But the social media marketing thing where you're filming short you know, I don't even know if you want to call it commercials cuz promos, yeah, promos, like they're fun videos, but it's for a specific business. Is that the new thing for you right now? The social media marketing like businesses are hiring you, right.

So yeah, so I pretty much like whatever I like. Now, I'm in position now that wherever I can put my foot in. Like for some reason, it's been working, you know, like for some reason, like I'll go to like a taco shop, I'll go to like Daft Talks or something, and I'm like now creating content for them, and and

Now, I'm like all right, like this is this is cool.

How did that partnership come about? Did you do something first because just for you and they saw it.

Or did someone reach out to someone reach out?

So it was I was literally a customer, was literally a customer going there every day and so like I've just been there every day that they knew what I owe and they even yeah man. And from there it's just like I started making little videos for them and yeah, they're just.

Were you doing it just voluntarily? Like yeah, look what I mean? Hello? Wow. Yeah. So it's not all about the money, y'all.

Like it's about the passion and they can't just think about that grand price you could say, you know, so it's just it's all about the journey y'all. So like it's all about just creating out of love, out of passion. Yeah, And I feel like things are just kind of like work itself out like on that same path.

I mean, I don't think that's that's a bad thing to like get get more into. You know. What I'm saying is getting to these restaurants or these little businesses and shooting something in there and shooting it to the owner and then they like it and they're like Hey, why don't you help us create content because I know a lot of businesses could use that, especially these businesses that have maybe like an older owner and they don't

Yeah, and it just fits so perfect too because it kind of is not outside of my league or anything like that, because it's still it kind of goes.

Back to that my space, my space days.

The same formula that I've always been working with. Nothing's out of the ordinary. Everything kind of just kind of I don't know, I just felt like everything kind of goes together without like without a second thought you could say, where like it's just like something.

Totally different, Yeah, Taco Bell. And then now.

You're are you were always like marketing, you know what I'm saying, and then now you're getting paid to market for people and making marketing content. So it's always been in you to do that, and now that social media is such a such a big thing to market businesses, like you're like right where you need to be.

Yeah, It's so crazy how things just kind of like it's just it all worked out you can say, and now we have like the our phones, we could just make content out of nowhere, like we want to go back to our computer download them.

Yeah, that was just so much harder. You can edit right there on your phone, dude.

We can edit a Palmer, you know pretty much.

Definitely so cool.

A big thing your personality. Where did this charismatic?

You've always been known as the energetic positive, just you know, a good guy.

Like where did this come from? Man?

You gotta see me at tourney. You might you might think I'm mad, but me, like you're always happy.

Yeah.

So yeah, so that's just me, man, that's just me having a reason to to just be out and then just have a reason, you know, like I feel like plays a big part, Like just this is just me at home, Dude, at home, I'm annoying, you know, to everybody else, but like you guys have fun, you know, energies.

But yeah, man, it's just that's that's just me.

It's not it's not a front or nothing, but I'm just I just love having fun.

Man. I think that's what's helped your brand though, because I think that's what kind of attracted people to you because a lot of times photographers, videographers you kind of maybe know their name or somebody kind of tells you about them, but you don't really see their face. They're not really a personality. And I feel like you are

Yeah, did anyone ever hire you to be a host of any you know, like get on stage, get on the mic.

Man, I'm surprised.

I think I might have done a few things here and there, but nothing too crazy. Yeah, like, nothing too crazy, man.

But I wouldn't be surprised after this, all right?

Oh man, man, Well what's so, what's what's happening now?

What's new for crunch the business man?

Dude, I've been having like the best like the last year and so like last year, this year it's been it feels like it feels I don't know, it almost feels like a refresh.

I was about to say, correct me if I'm wrong about this.

Did you kind of disappear for a little bit?

Disappeared because like I you know, living in Fresno for a while, you always knew where Crunch it was or what he was doing. But there was a point where like you, I don't know, maybe it was just me, but you weren't doing anything.

Is that fair to say? Yeah? Definitely, fact, big facts. Yeah.

Because first for a second though, like after COVID happened, like it just kind of went silent for a second. Yeah, and then like I felt like almost had like cause I still had stuff to do, like finish like projects obviously, like you know, like the fun stuff is like shooting and like doing the video and all that, you know, fun stuff, and like the next workload is like the editing. Yeah, I definitely I definitely went like on a burnout kind of like where I'm like I kind of just stopped hating.

I didn't like.

Nothing no more. I'm like, this wasn't fun. I was just doing the same thing. And it had like a little like moment where I'm like, you know what, like

And I just started doing.

Like fun stuff, you know, like like the blogging stuff again, and started doing a little shorts now.

And now I don't have to worry about like making like a long video. It could be short.

I don't have to put too much thought onto it, and it's gonna be fun. And then yeah, the last few years, man, it's just it's been great the last three years.

You could say, I mean what you just said is so strong because it's things that we've been talking about, even with mental health. Go do things that you want to do. It's so strong of just that statement.

Yeah, I think sometimes you just get caught in, like it starts to be repetitive or like you said, it starts to just become a check and once you get into that mode, you just start not having fun again and you almost like lose yourself on like why you

I got to shout you out also because you're somebody that you try to support as many things going on in town.

Yeah, and you.

Are seen and if it's a party, an event, whatever it is, I see you out there trying to support as many things. Obviously you can't go to everything, but I see you out there ro and I think that's appreciated from whoever's throwing the event. You know, I saw you at the last Lakura and like, you know, those are the homies events and it was good to see you there. And yeah, so shout out to you for doing that too.

Man, yeah, man, anything anything like people invite me to. Like I'm just like if I could, I would.
