Lately, the tribe name and logo have been printed on an entirely different piece of fabric, only to be cut out and sewn onto the large flag. By contrast, the tribe camp flags are composed of multiple separate parts. The challenge flags are printed off a single computer file. The creation process for the beach flags differs from the nylon challenge banners, though.
The competition flags are much longer, but it varies from season to season. The beach flags tend to be printed on a thick tarp-like cloth – and they typically measure forty-five inches wide by thirty inches tall. In addition to the Buffs, tribe flags and challenge banners are printed in advance. The Buffs that are purchased by the public are produced much closer to airing and are by far the most popular Survivor prop among fans, becoming a must-have collectible each season for many ardent supporters. SEG (Survivor Entertainment Group) usually orders a large number of the Buffs to ensure that they have enough for tribe swaps, crew member souvenirs, etc. Because the cloth is white, designers don’t have to worry about color variances between the Buffs, for it is all streamlined by the computer. To maintain the exact colors, the Buff® company uses a white and stretchy polyester fabric (this is why the inside of the Survivor Buffs have a near white complexion, with the design partially bleeding through). As mentioned in the previous article, the designs on the Buffs are vector-based – meaning that the effect of the printing will not mar them. One of the universal props is the Buff – a bandana worn by each contestant to signify their tribe. The aesthetic of Survivor is just as important as anything else. Tiki torches, immunity necklaces, hidden idols. Over the years Survivor has established a collection of props that are just as recognizable to the format of the show as voting people out is.
