Consuming Kids: The Commercialization of Childhood - Consuming Kids traces the evolution and impact of the multi-billion youth marketing industry, exposing its controversial tactics and exploring the effects of hyper-consumerism on the actual lived experiences of children.
Captive Audience: Advertising Invades the Classroom - This video explores the rise of advertising in schools and how it is compromising the mission of American public education.
Mickey Mouse Monopoly: Disney, Childhood & Corporate Power - Mickey Mouse Monopoly takes a close and critical look at the world Disney films create and the stories they tell about race, gender and class and reaches disturbing conclusions about the values propagated under the guise of innocence and fun.
Beyond Good & Evil: Children, Media & Violent Times - In response to the 9/11 tragedy, U.S. political leaders and news media simplified complex international relationships into a fight between good and evil. Focusing on the impact on such rhetoric and imagery on children, this video examines how this "good and evil" narrative shapes our perceptions of, and response to, conflict.
Remote Control - Based on the findings of the Kaiser Family Foundation's landmark study Generation M: Media in the Lives of 8 to 18-year-olds, examines the implications of this unprecedented level of exposure. Putting a human face on the report's statistical findings, filmmaker Bob McKinnon explores the media habits of two families, supplementing their powerful personal insights with testimony from media experts, educators, and policymakers.
