Before I even became MsHyperSinger on Youtube, I've been under another username (which I only used for uploading school videos and vlogs) from 2006 to 2010, and I used to pass by videos with a familiar face that was always connected to "NOYTUBE" videos. I was curious as to what "NOYTUBE" was and realized that it was an online community of Filipino Youtubers, started by a man named JASON a.k.a. CHINAEYES22. Through him, Filipino Youtubers would get introduced through video collaborations, and they would end up becoming friends. It reminds me of the blog world as well, wherein we all end up being friends in a particular community, and we collaborate with each other to create posts, whereas it is video collaborations on Youtube.
I never reached out to this community-- I only watched. The reason why I did not reach out was because I thought it was only for Youtubers who really made serious projects online. I was the type who only uploaded videos for the sake of my friends seeing them. Little did I know that it was indeed for EVERYBODY, and you do not necessarily have to be a serious Youtuber to be part of the community. In 2010, I opened MsHyperSinger's channel, and saw Chinaeyes22's channel again. I left him a comment, and he replied right away, welcoming me to their community. After all the years that I knew him without him knowing me, we finally got connected.
He is a very friendly and humble person, who has a very creative mind. No wonder he is a director and graphics artist at ABS-CBN! Nonetheless, it is amazing how he is sharing his talent online as well, giving wonderful and creative video opportunities that the celebrities are getting to non-celebrity Filipinos like us. He has been holding gatherings for other Filipino Youtubers to meet, and if it wasn't for him, Noytube would not exist, and Filipinos (as well as non-Filipinos) from all over the world would not be able to discover other creative people as well. In other words, he created an impact on Youtube, and that is why, he is on spotlight today! Let's get to know the man behind "Noytube"!

NAME: Jason Omaña Telmo
AGE: 39
LOCATION: Quezon City, Philippines
YOUTUBE URL: http://youtube.com/chinaeyes22
When did you start Youtube?
- I started in YouTube way back in April 2006.
Why did you decide to finally share your videos online?
- I decided to share my videos online because I feel that there is so much I want to share to the world and I felt that my talent will help me meet new people around the world.
How long have you been producing videos (even outside the online world) ?
- I've been producing my own videos for over 10 years now. I've always been excited and inspired in making animated shorts. Making films has always been my passion.
How did you come up with your username?
- My username "ChinaEyess22" was my code name way back when my YouTube account was just a mugen channel. I was very interested in 2D fighting games before my channel became the Filipino-loving YT channel it is today.
What kind of videos do you do?
- I make all sorts of videos. From short silly comedy skits, to science fiction, action-adventure stories filled with loads of special effects, to travel videos that feature me touring various cities abroad. A majority of my works feature collaborations that allow my friends to participate in my videos... It's more fun that way.
Where do you get your inspiration when it comes to making these videos?- I get my inspiration in making videos from my family and friends who constantly watch and comment on my videos. It is these people who I care the most who continue to motivate me in staying in YouTube.
What is your BEST VIDEO that will summarize what you can offer ?
- Hmmm... That's a difficult question... I have a lot of personal favorites. The best video that would probably summarize what I can offer to my viewers is "POSSESSED". That awesome video has it all! Special effects, great directing, hilarious acting and most of all the participation of my online friends. It's one of my most successful video collabs in YouTube and am very proud of to this day. I had a lot of fun producing it.
Another "best video" I may add would be my NOYTUBE video. This is the video that started all the wonderful things happening in my YT channel now. It started out as a thank you video to all my earlier YouTube friends. Little did I know that this would be the video that would start the NoyTube community.
What is Noytube?
- NOYTUBE is an online group that I formed in YouTube whose sole purpose is to unite active, video-uploading Filipino YouTubers all around the world. NoyTube helps feature Pinoy talent and help them meet fellow Filipinos sharing the same interest. Absolutely everybody can join NoyTube, whether you're a Filipino or Non-Filipino. It's a fun group that welcomes all cultural diversities, at the same time promoting Filipino pride through YouTube videos.

What is your overall goal in terms of video production? Do you want to fully pursue this career?
- My overall goal is to continue to astound people with my directing and animation skills through video production. My hobby has always been storytelling through videos and it's a passion that will never burn out from me.
Yes! I do want to pursue this as a career. In fact, I am presently a director, video editor, animator and graphics artist in ABS-CBN. I still strive to learn more about filming so that I can eventually be part of the biggest motion picture making companies in the Philippines. Being part of the Pinoy film industry is my ultimate dream.
Any message to the viewers?
- Life is a big stage, and we are all performers. Each of us has a role to play. That's what matters. What you do.
Love who you are and what you do. Do not let other people tell you what you should be and what you should be doing with your life. Do what makes you happy. Life is beautiful no matter what. And do not let your memories be greater than your dreams.
