    ABC Entertainment Executive Gets "Real" With Scott Manville and the TV Writers Vault...
     
    ABC Entertainment Vice-President of Alternative Series & Specials, Corie Henson, joins us for an exclusive interview to discuss pitching and producing some of TV's biggest hits. Ms. Henson oversees the development and production of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition", "Shark Tank", and other hit shows for ABC. She shares with us some invaluable perspectives on the reality genre, what works, what they look for in new shows, and some insider anecdotes on Mark Burnett. 
     
    From the Interview:
    "We're really looking for something that will be the next step in Reality. Not to reinvent the wheel, because there is comfort in the familiar, but to think big and take a unique approach..."  
    - Corie Henson / ABC Entertainment

    We urge all of our Writers to do their homework, study what's being produced, read our executive interviews to get a grasp of how the execs think and what they look for, and put in the extra effort to deliver concepts that are truly original.
     
    Thank you for the dedication you've shown to your creative efforts, and I wish all of you the best of luck connecting with our Producers scouting your projects.
     
    Write Inspired,
     
    Scott Manville
    President & Founder
     

     
    Give Your Project The SECRET WEAPON That Producers Want, and Networks Demand -
     
    PROFESSIONAL TV CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
     
    When a Producer turns down a project, the Writer isn't the only one disappointed. The Producer often discovers the great idea or story they were initially interested in lacks the necessary content or format required to become a real production, killing their confidence for selling it to a Network.
     
    Producers hire their own development executives to create and craft their written pitches ("treatments") to bring to Network. Take advantage of this opportunity to give your project the same insider's edge the production company's have. With more than a decade of experience in formulating and writing professional treatments for Television's top Producers, TV Writers Vault founder, Scott Manville, offers all producers, writers, and concept creators customized services to develop and write your pitch at Network standard.

    Latest Testimonials:
     
    "We couldn't express more confidence or more appreciation for the professional consulting and the above-and-beyond advice and coaching from Scott. From the first personal contact we had with him, we were impressed with the attention Scott gave to us and our projects. His knowledge and expertise are for real, as well as his commitment to his clients. Our projects have had numeous reviews by TV execs, producers and agents at the TV Writers Vault, and we've even made contact with multiple Producers. Now, after expert help from Scott, the rest is up to us!"

    "I hired Scott Manville to help develop an idea for a half-hour cable reality series, and by the end of July I had a Production Company pick up the idea and schedule a pilot shoot. I've been in TV, both on and off air for ten years, and I can tell you that Scott works wonders for a reasonable amount of money. He makes the process comfortable and detailed."
