Joel Haver (born February 13, 1996) is a Canadian YouTuber and filmmaker.[1]
Early life
Haver was born on February 13, 1996 in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, Canada.[2] He grew up in Belchertown, Massachusetts, and has an older brother.[3] He studied film at Pratt Institute.[4]
Career
Haver publishes comedy sketches and films, frequently using rotoscoped animation.[5][6][7][8][9] He has hosted an annual "Movies Shot During the Oscars" film festival, in which he encourages independent filmmakers to shoot feature-length films during the broadcast of the yearly Academy Awards ceremony.[10]
In July 2022, Joel Haver published the "Toilet Paper Bears" comedy sketch on his YouTube channel, depicting a dispute between the Charmin Bears family, in which the son confronts his father in his dream to be a dancer to his father's disappointment.[11] Later that year, Saturday Night Live aired the "Charmin Bears" sketch, with similarities to Haver's video. Notably, a young bear confronts his father about his dream to be a dancer, the bears are colored blue, and the father and the son wear similar attire.[11] Later that month, Haver published his video entitled "SNL stole my video", attributing the similarities to parallel thinking and adding, "If I still was a smaller creator, which I was for a long time, I could see it rubbing me the wrong way."[12][13][14]
