Since his childhood, Chris has been a big fan of the Star Wars movies (only three at that time). From the very beginning he was excited lightsaber, an elegant and somehow mystical weapon which can only be used by a few chosen ones. When he first spotted a FX-lightsaber on Ebay, there was nothing that could have stopped him. He joined Team Saberproject in 2010 and can now finally live out his hobby.
Within the team he is mainly responsible for writing and texts in general. Chris writes most of the announcements and daily reports of our events as well as other interesting news. In addition he has taken over the responsibility for planning, coordinating and implementing our regular updates on the website. Naturally he is also part of our stage shows, in which he primarily focuses on using a single lightsaber, and – at least in the recent programs – represents the light side of the force.

Markus ist seit 2008 dabei und damit nach Tim und Alex das dienstälteste Mitglied. Durch sein Faible für Technik findet er schnell Spaß daran, an Lichtschwertern herumzubasteln und auch selbst zu bauen. Dies führte zur Gründung des Saberproject Shops, den er zunächst zusammen mit Tim und später dann bis zum heutigen Tage allein betreibt.
Auf der Bühne vor Publikum Lichtschwertkämpfe zu zeigen macht ihm unheimlich viel Spaß. Zusammen mit seinen Teamkollegen hat er bereits über 220 Shows auf vielen verschiedenen Events gespielt. Dort ist er zumeist als doppelklingenwirbelnder Bösewicht zu sehen.
More about Markus
Alex is one of our founder members. He and his father have been Star Wars fans from the very beginning and started replaying the battles scenes when Alex was only a little kid. However he was always fascinated most by the movies’ visual effects and went for creating his own videos only a few years later. In 2006 he met with other fans and together they founded Saberproject.
Meanwhile not only his excitement for Star Wars has become one of his hobbies, but also his passion for special effects, which is why Alex is primarily responsible for our video section. Furthermore he is very attracted to the character of Darth Vader, so one should not be surprised that he owns his costume and often plays an important role in our stage performances with it. That is also why we like to call him by his nickname Vader from time to time.

Tim is one of the founding members of Saberproject. Since his childhood he has always been an avid Star Wars fan and with the founding of a website dealing with lightsabers he started something he would not have dared to dream of. He is very proud of everything the team has achieved and hopefully will achieve in future. Inspiring visitors and spectators pleases him most about his hobby in which he invests a lot of time.
From the beginning Tim has been the administrator of our website. By working in the team he learned a lot of different things and now takes care of everything concerning the website’s updates. Additionally he is also working with sponsors and is responsible for the general organization of the team.
