Production Notes

As long as they can remember, Yasmin (Nathalia Ramos), Jade (Janel Parrish), Sasha (Logan Browning) and Cloe (Skyler Shaye) have been “BFF” – Best Friends Forever. Inseparable since they first met, the young girls have always supported each other’s individual personalities, talents and fabulous fashion styles.

The highly popular dolls BRATZ finally come alive in BRATZ, the first live action feature film based on the chic fashion dolls. As the Bratz navigate their way through this story, we will see how the four young women represent honesty, camaraderie and most importantly friendship.

Some say that friendship isn’t truly appreciated until it’s tested. This hard lesson certainly isn’t lost on the BRATZ as they navigate their way, individually and collectively, through the trials and tribulations of high school life.

Nathalia Ramos was drawn to the role of Yasmin because she feels like Yasmin is a kindred spirit because so much of her character resonates in her real life.

The influence of fashion on young girls is something that can’t be ignored or understated, and the BRATZ are no exception. As director McNamara states, “Fashion is the special effects of this film. Bernadene did an amazing job at dressing these girls to be at the forefront of fashion.”

The entire filming of BRATZ took place in the Los Angeles area during the months of February and March, 2007. Real city locations were used ranging from the Santee Educational Complex located in South Los Angeles, to The Grove, a trendy shopping center in the heart of West Hollywood, and finally moving over to the residential neighborhood of Studio City.
