| David Jaffe Interview for Twisted Metal 2 - RARE and OLD |
 |
Another old video from the PlayStation Museum
archives! Enjoy this historical interview
with David Jaffe, the producer and designer
of Twisted Metal 1 and 2. You can also catch
a glimpse of Mike Giam, the well-respected
producer and designer of WarHawk and Jet Moto
(just to name a few.) Both David and Mike
also designed Mickey Mania which was released
on the PlayStation from Traveller's Tales in
Europe.
In case you can't read the questions in the
video, the questions that are asked are
below:
Question 1: What inspired Twisted Metal?
Question 2: Was it everything you wanted?
Quesiton 3: What are you most proud of in
Twisted Metal 2?
Question 4: How is Twisted Metal 2 different
from Twisted Metal?
Question 5: What's best about your job?
Quesiton 6: What's your workday like?
Question 7: What about violence in video
games?
Question 8: What game do you wish you
designed?
Question 9: Anything you'd rather do for a
living?
Question 10: How do you become a game
designer?
Question 11: How did you break into the
gaming industry?
Trivia: David Jaffe is wearing a Twisted
Metal 2 jacket in the interview. This jacket
along with a Jet Moto version was created
specially for the development team. The
designer of the jacket stated it was one of
the most difficult designs she had ever
created. David and Mike kept management (and
the marketing dept) on their toes, that's for
sure.

The man is the video is, first, my friend
Brent Turner, who I met on the Obama
campaign, and Joel Jaffe, who's the owner of
Studio D Recording an a legend himself for
his engineering work. Matt gives us the
tour and he's sort of the "go-to" guy around
the place, and then there's an Intern who's
nameless here.
The place is full of history and available
for use by your music group. Just call 415

| Claudio Jaffe - Highlights from Concerto No. 1 in A minor - Camille Saint-Saens |
 |
Hailed by The New York Times as "an elegant
and accomplished artist" of "taste,
technique, musicianship, and a contagious
youthful enthusiasm", Claudio Jaffé
fascinates his audiences with his colorful
and passionate virtuosity.
As a recitalist and chamber musician, Jaffé
has performed in some of the most prestigious
concert halls around the world, including the
Weill Recital Hall, Town Hall, and Merkin
Concert Hall in New York City; the Kennedy
Center in Washington, DC; the Teatro Colon in
Buenos Aires; Sala Cecilia Meireles in Rio de
Janeiro; Sociedade Cultura Artistica in São
Paulo; Wigmore Hall in London; Suntory Hall
in Tokyo; and the National Arts Centre in
Ottawa. His performance was found to be
"eloquent with pathos and tenderness" by the
New London Day, which further commented on
Jaffé's "superb intonation, robust sound,
and overall musical command".
Jaffé made his orchestral debut at the age
of 11, performing a concerto written for him
by Brazilian composer Radames Gnattali. At
the age of 18, he made his first appearance
as a soloist with a major symphony orchestra.
A winner of the International Villa-Lobos
Cello Competition, Jaffé has performed with
international orchestras such as the Slovak
Philharmonic, the Calgary Symphony, and the
Brazilian orchestras of Rio de Janeiro, São
Paulo, ParaÃba, and Goiânia. He has also
performed throughout the United States with
the Delaware, Lexington, Elgin, Greenville,
Augusta, Rockford, Missouri, Olympia,
Bridgeport, Pensacola, Jackson, Owensboro,
Paducah, and Columbus symphony orchestras to
name just a few.
Chosen to perform in the Select Debut Series,
Jaffé made his New York City debut recital
at Town Hall. He performed throughout his
native country as the winner of the Young
Artists of Brazil Competition. As a
prizewinner of numerous competitions, Jaffé
won first place in the Villa-Lobos
International Cello Competition, the East and
West Young Artists Competition that awarded
him a solo recital at Carnegie Recital Hall,
and several symphony orchestra competitions
where he was invited to perform as soloist
(New London, CT; Poughkeepsie, NY; Pasadena,
CA). He was a semi-finalist in major
International competitions including the
Tchaikovsky International Competition in
Moscow, Russia; the Gaspar Cassadó
International Cello Competition in Florence,
Italy; the Naumburg Competition in New York;
the Maria Canals International Competition in
Barcelona, Spain; and the Viña del Mar
International Music Competition in Chile.
Jaffé was also selected as Musical America's
Young Artists of 1987.
In addition to performing in over 40 U.S.
states, Jaffé has been an active educator.
He has conducted master classes around the
world and has served on the faculty at
several music festivals. He was a faculty
member at Florida International University
and Florida Atlantic University, and for 4
years served as Dean of the Conservatory of
Music at Lynn University. He created and
directs the String program at Saint Andrew's
School in Boca Raton, FL and has been the
Resident Conductor of the Florida Youth
Orchestra for over 14 years.
Born in São Paulo, Brazil, Jaffé began his
cello studies at the age of seven and gave
his first public concert at the age of
eleven. His early teachers included Iberê
Gomes Grosso, his father Alberto Jaffé,
Antonio Guerra Vicente, and Juarez Johnson.
At the age of fifteen, he received an
invitation by the distinguished Yale
professor of cello Aldo Parisot to study in
the United States. Subsequently, Jaffé
earned his undergraduate, graduate and
doctoral degrees from Yale University under
Parisot's tutelage. Jaffé studied in Master
classes and special workshops with great
masters of the cello including Yo-Yo Ma, Lynn
Harrell, Paul Tortelier, Tokyo String
Quartet, Janos Starker, Nathaniel Rosen, and
Ralph Kirshbaum.
The current performance occured on March 25,
1988, in Edinburg, TX, with the Valley
Symphony Orchestra, directed by Dr. Carl
Seale.
