Fun Little Movies made a splash with its Turbo Dates mobile videos, so it’s jumped back in the dating pool for Mr. Wrong, a series of mobile videos about all those dates from hell. The creator,says FLM prez Frank Chindamo, is his wife Lynn Chindamo. “Our mission statement says, we’re about love and laughter,” Frank explains. “Mr. Wrong was her idea. Lynn has done her share of dating, like me, and she ran across all these Mr. Wrong types: Mr. Liar, Mr. Cheater, Mr. Talks-on-the-Phone-Too-Much (which was me), Mr. Dirt Bag, Mr. Messiah.”

According to Frank, Lynn began sharing these stories with her girlfriends, who threw in their own Mr. Wrong stories until they had 22 potential two-minute episodes. The Chindamos pitched it to Babelgum, which signed up for the idea, and production began. Chindamo says that part of the business proposition was to partner with an improv comedy company, Improv Olympics or IO West, which supplied not just the actors but also director James Grace (who directed the majority of the episodes) and the shooting space. (Lynn Chindamo directed four episodes and editor Nick Alexander directed one.)  Editing was done by Alexander, Matthew Friedman and Ryan Tweedy. There’s also a music video Mr. Wrong, which highlights the show’s opening theme song, a collaboration between Lynn Chindamo, composer Eric Speier, and the rapper Pow Shadowz, all of whom performed in the music video.
