Role at SP?
On the team, I’m mainly responsible for the videos together with Hannes, with my focus generally more on visual effects than editing. At events I often walk around with the camera trying to capture the great moments in photos and videos, and I coordinate handing out cameras to our helpers. On stage you’ll see me either as a Jedi or as Darth Vader.
Best memory with the team?
That would definitely be our anniversary celebration. Meeting our role model Nick Gillard and simply enjoying the time with our friends was just a great time.
Three things that must not be missing at any event?
The most important thing for me is a good mood, together with the right people. Without that, every event quickly gets exhausting and stressful. Apart from that, no event is complete without a Vader.
Why lightsabers, anyway?
Since I’m fascinated by visual effects and swords in general, lightsabers are the perfect combination of both. Especially with lightsaber choreographies, you can get even more creative.
How did you join the team?
In early 2006 I posted videos of lightsaber fights with my father in the Projekt Star Wars forum. When Tim then asked me if I’d be interested in building a website about lightsabers, I couldn’t possibly say no.
