GENERAL INFORMATION

> Buys or licenses finished productions (acquisitions) from independent writers, producers, and/or directors

FLM is actively seeking short comedy content for play on our own Sprint, Microsoft and Smartphones channel. (See the Fun Little Movies channel at a Sprint store or on a Sprint Vision phone.) We need FUNNY, under 3 minute, visual humor, and can distribute your content worldwide. Series are much preferred over single films.

> Develops with independent writers, producers, and/or directors

For exceptionally funny mobile content we will work with writers. It helps if they can produce their own 2 to 3 minute pilot.

> Has optioned a spec script before

> Has hired a 'new' writer, producer, and/or director before

What we look for

Our “brand” is very specific. We go for “fun, funny phone films.” No violence, as little negativity as possible… lighthearted entertainment. As quoted in the front page article of Wireless News Daily:

“We’re a production studio in Hollywood that creates one thing: Mobile comedy content. If you’re looking for a cooking show or extreme sports, you’ve come to the wrong place. (Unless of course you want a show about a guy who can cook while doing an extreme sport. In fact, that’s not bad idea. Picture a guy kneading dough while bungee jumping!)”

Anything Else:

This is a fast-growing market, and at this time, the thing we'd most like to see is a pilot under 3 minutes. We will play it right on the spot and give you feedback immediately!
