 File — Folder: 10

Scope and Content Note

From the Sub-Series:

This subseries contains digital videos captured by and about staff members from Toys for Bob during the donation of Skylanders materials to The Strong in July 2017. Toys for Bob staff interviewed here include studio heads Paul Reiche III and Robert (“Fred”) Ford, art manager Amber Long, lead technical software engineer Dan Gerstein, audio director Dan Neil, principal concept artist I-Wei Huang, senior technical artist Mike Ludlam, principal engineer Robert Leyland, lead concept artist Ron Kee, design director Toby Schadt, associate creative director Paul Yan, and character lead designer Nat Loh. Also part of this subseries is a video interview with Alex Ness, who worked as a producer, narrative director, and chief of staff at Toys for Bob.

Video interviews were conducted by JP Dyson, Director of the International Center for the History of Electronic Games at The Strong. Audio was recorded separately for posterity and two video cameras were set up to record each interview at the Toys for Bob offices, resulting in one audio file and two video files for each interview segment. File types and lengths are denoted in the folder descriptions. See also the collection's finding aid for item-level description.

These interview files are available online to researchers via The Strong’s Preservica-Universal Access portal.
