Blind Wave is an online social entertainment group of filmmakers and content creators based in Marrietta, Ohio. They started a YouTube channel in 2009 making videos for TheForce.net’s International Lightsaber Choreography Contest[1]. After hitting it big with their award winning Lightsaber fight video “Ferocity”, which currently has over 19 million views, the channel has continued to grow to include Reactions, Reviews, Gaming, and Original Content. Thanks to the generosity of their fans through Patreon, Blind Wave's five members are currently able to run the channel full-time, and to contract a group of editors, providing multiple videos daily.[2][3]
Creation[edit]
Blind Wave was originally founded by Eric Whiteley, Shane Farley and Aaron Elliott in 2009. They got their start by making short films, wedding videos, commercials, but eventually moved to creating reaction and review type content. Since then, they have moved to a new channel by the same name where they continue their work.[4]
