It's A Girl Thing: Tween Queens and the Commodification of the Girl's Tween Market

A few years of research, thoughts and adjustments that all led to a completed film which, framed by the structure of a faux interactive website for tween girls, looks closely, and critically, at the tween market's evolution and the role of Disney and Nickelodeon's tween queens (Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Britney Spears, Hilary Duff, Miley Cryus, Miranda Cosgrove, Kiki Palmer, Selena Gomez, and more) in the market's explosion.

The Michelle Book Series



Found these online and have to say the Michelle series is the creepiest of all MKA products so far. The fact that they are literally presented as one person just leaves a flat feeling in my stomach. By this point the girls had other Twin videos going so I'm assuming this is more of a Full House decision than a Dualstar thing, but still...it makes me a little queasy to see them morphed into this one image despite the fact that everyone knew two girls were playing the one part by this point.
