Buddy Systems

From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum


Background

Buddy Systems is a partnership of Stoopid Buddy Stoodios, which is owned by Robot Chicken producers John Harvatine IV and Eric Towner.

Logo (June 12, 2020-December 10, 2021)


Visuals: There is a campsite, complete with an RV and picnic table in the background. Several rocks and bushes are scattered throughout, and some hills and trees can be seen in the distance. Two toy-like figures like those in Crossing Swords are seen as well - one with a cheese hat, green football jersey, glasses, a handlebar moustache holding a football, and another with a cowboy hat who are grilling meat on a small BBQ. The figures turn a bit as the words "BUDDY SYSTEMS" in blue turn sideways into view, notably casting a shadow.

Trivia: The two figures in the logo are most likely John Harvatine IV and Eric Towner, and the recreational vehicle is actually called the "Winnebago", a mascot of Stoopid Buddy Stoodios.

Variants:

  • On the first season of Crossing Swords, depending on the show's episode it appears on, two fictional advertisements (related to moments in the episode itself) appear in the spaces between both this logo and the Tom Is Awesome logo.
  • On the second season of Crossing Swords, the logo is still and the pixelated parts from the Tom Is Awesome logo were seen at the bottom.

Technique: Stop-motion animation.

Audio: A young child saying "That was amazing!" along with clicking noises as the letters turn.

Availability: Seen on Crossing Swords on Hulu.
