Background

This is the vanity card of Carlton Cuse. It was first known as "Boam/Cuse Productions" with Jeffrey Boam, before Boam dropped out and it was changed to "Carlton Cuse Productions". It later became "American Genre" in 2012, before reverting back to its previous name in 2013 to avoid possible confusion with the American Genre Film Archive. This name was subsequently shortened to "Cuse Productions" in 2016. The following year, the company was renamed again, this time to Genre Arts.

Nicknames: "Western Kids", "Little Cowboys"

Logo: We see two children wearing cowboy outfits standing together in front of a house in a western town. The little boy on the left wearing black with red badges is putting his arm around the little girl on the right wearing red and white (who seemed to look nervous). Both of them are looking at the camera. We see "BOAM/CUSE" in a large blue Impact font and smaller blue text "PRODUCTIONS". In addition to these words, the line "in association with" fades in at the bottom.
