    The TV Writers Vault Newsletter
     
    Greetings Writers!
     
     
    This spring brought new beginnings for several of our Writers making direct contact with Producers, in addition to the 200-plus official project reviews our writing members received.
     
    Each week has seen at least 3 production companies scouting our database for new projects, and always several projects selected as "under consideration". I want to take this moment to emphasize the importance of constantly developing and refining your material. Check out our information on concept development and other insight for expanding your craft. An idea can be great, but an Executive won't get past the first paragraph if it's not efficient and forward-moving in detail. Every project that has been optioned from our service was written in a very detailed, but brisk form. Kudos to those who take the time to refine!
     
    We're excited to have several new companies in the fold this month, and many new writers. We wish all of you the best of success. Please contact me personally with any questions or requests you may have regarding the use of our service. I'm here to help.
     
    I want to personally thank you for your commitment to the creative process, as we at the TV Writers Vault commit ourselves to the protection and promotion of your inspired projects.
     
     
    Yours Truly,
    GoldPenTip

    New Production Members!
     
    We're pleased to welcome three new television production members to our ranks. TV Guide Network, National Lampoon / Comedy Cocktail and CJ Mercon Productions.
     
    Current Writing Members may log into their account and view our "Mandate Report" to see what project types these and other production members at the TV Writers Vault are searching for.
    Pitch "Write" Now! GoldPenTip
    Concept is king in the world of development, but to pitch right you've got to go the extra mile in making your concept something tangible. Branded elements (a person or product) can spur the executive into fast forward action because the project then has a built in audience, and can often clarify the direction and potential of the show. Although, attaching a celebrity or personality to your project can be a career in itself, involving an expert or first-hand person related to your subject matter or story can be enough for a producer to invest in. Don't pitch a reality-based project involving Nascar unless you can get Nascar involved. Typically, it starts with a query to their marketing reps. This is typically a producers job, but your goal is to bring a production company a project that already has legs.
     
    Roll up your sleeves, and do the leg-work that will put your project above all others. Even if your project doesn't get produced, the meetings and contacts it can generate will only help the big picture for new projects to come.

    Writer Testimony!

     

    "TV Writers Vault is an excellent resource for Writers/Creators looking to get their ideas out to a broad market quickly and effectively. In the six months that I've had my Treatment up with TV Writers Vault, it has been reviewed by five different production companies, and I just spoke this morning to the head of one company looking to take it to the next step. In addition to the ease of posting your Treatments, Scott Manville is quick to help with connecting interested parties. Thanks for putting together such a great service!"
