MEDIA & ENTERTAINMENT
The Buddy Group knows entertainment and media. In fact, our founders got their start in the entertainment and media space. We have experience in marketing live entertainment, motion pictures, DVD releases and publishing websites. Before joining The Buddy Group, Vice President Bryan Boettger owned and operated Ross Publishing - a publishing company specializing in custom print and online publications. These print expertise are coupled with extensive experience in interactive websites, promotional websites, podcasting, email marketing, rich media advertising and interactive cdroms for movies, publications, television and radio.
The Buddy Group is proud to have worked on: rich media ads for Warner Bros. Independent films like March of the Penguins and Everything Is Illuminated; soon to be launched state-of-the-art websites for The OC Pavilion and Pacific Chorale; a custom 90-page, full-color guidebook for Gilead pharmaceuticals; dynamically updated, Flash training applications for Precision Solutions; and the 36 Parables DVD collection.

VIDEO
The Buddy Group is leading the charge in bringing video and interactive video to the Internet in websites, rich media ads and online applications. Our Director of Photography and Digital Video Production has an Academy Award Nomination for his work on IMAX movies -- so we ain't messin' around here! The Buddy Group is creating new rules in utilizing high-end video in ways end users have never before seen. Currently, our new Orange County headquarters are being built out with a 400 square foot video studio with green screen capabilities.
The Buddy Group's vision for the future starts with: seamless interactive video like "Make Me Dance" on our homepage; content and video integration like the burger navigation on this Chef's Specials page; video and animation merged to create dynamic games and applications like that found in the Cafeteria; and much more.

RICH MEDIA
The Buddy Group specializes in producing online ads that captivate and engage your target demographic. Our founders pioneered rich media creative launching some of the first overlay ads and polite banners. Today, we continue to push the envelope on what is possible using rich media. This constant drive for perfection and creative breakthrough has garnered some of the highest click-thru rates for our agency Buddies and their clients.
Not only does The Buddy Group produce dozens of rich media creative pieces every month for clients like Nokia, Hasbro and Warner Bros., but we also work closely with many makers of rich media technology themselves. Through cooperative relationships, The Buddy Group stays in personal contact with technology makers to keep an open dialogue about how both we and they are pushing the newest technologies to their limits.
Call CEO/Chief Buddy Pete Deutschman at 949.468.0042, bunk 101, to chat about how your brand can generate higher click-thru rates than you've ever seen before.
AGENCY COLLABORATION
The Buddy Group was founded on the principle that two buddies working together are always better than one acting alone. Many of our top clients are other agencies, and we appreciate the importance of building a long-term relationship based on trust, return on investment and commitment. We have worked with small, medium and large agencies behind the scenes or on the frontline deploying strategies, brainstorming or building out creative campaigns. We will play the role you need and never step on our Buddies' feet.
To that end, we of course can't publicize what agencies we do work for behind the scenes. However, we'd love to sit down and talk with you about how The Buddy Group can help add to the arsenal of resources your agency has at their disposal.
