    SLAY BELLES: Mean Girls go full Santa on the West End Sleigh bells did ring as I headed to North Shore High School (or Holborn Studios Ltd) with AKA UK, to shoot a festive variant of the campaign we created last year for Tina Fey’s musical Mean Girls, from Sonia Friedman Productions. This heavily backlit, Santa-themed setup (see BTS shot) is all over the Tubes at the moment. Watch out the for the refreshed main artwork we also shot, to debut early next year.
