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.

A DAY OF GOODNESS AND PRODUCTIVITY



Today was a day of good news and even more productiveness on the film front. Donna secured the rights to the Corrie Pikul story (for one of our animation sections) and also got further in her efforts to get to Moby's publicist to discuss interveiwing him late Sept (keep your fingers crossed for us), AND we had our first animation team meeting. Taylor Gill, a UNCW junior, has joined the Silvacine team and will be assisting Andre with the films animation segments over the next two or three semesters. The meeting today went even better than I had expected..why you ask? Because it turns out that Taylor, in addition to being a fab beginning animator, also use to babysit a neighbor who was a bit of an MKA fan and so he's familar with their brand and their history.

Yeah today! Yeah Donna! Yeah Taylor!
