    Professional Development & Writing Services for All Genres of TV

    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 illustration required to become a real production.

    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 companies have.

    With more than a decade of experience in formulating and writing professional treatments for some of Television's top producers and networks, Scott Manville offers independent services to consult, craft or write your project at Network standards.

    Select any of the available options for hire below, and you will be contacted to begin work on your project.

    What Clients Are Saying:

    "I was honored to work with you on the project, and hey- that’s the project that just got the deal! Whaddaya know man, you ARE good! But seriously, you offer so much through your consulting & development process that I think everyone should take advantage of it, and often. With your experience in this industry it is a MUST, especially for new writers to work with you."                                                      

    - Stephen Reichel  /  Client and Writer

    "I hired Scott for his expertise in developing/writing television treatments, and as a result, I now have an exciting project going to contract with a top-tier Production Company. Manville is a gifted Writer with a style that is clean, direct and incredibly well thought out. His uncanny ability to apply his personal insights and industry experience to his work makes Scott stand out from a cast of thousands. Worth every penny."

    - Burkhart Lindahl / Client and Writer

    "From the first personal contact we had with Scott, we were impressed with the attention he 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 numerous reviews by Producers and Agents at the TV Writers Vault, and we've even made contact with multiple Producers! Now, after his expert help, the rest is up to us."

    Mic Mikolai & Melissa Martinez  /  Client & Writer

    "I was lucky to have found Scott Manville at the TV Writers Vault and his services offering a rewrite of my treatment.  Scott used his proficient writing style and accomplished what I could not- A succinct format that would be comprehensible to my target industry executive. Also important is how he came up with several really good additions to the show format."

    - Jennifer Dyer / Client and Writer

     

    "I hired Scott Manville in May of 2009 to help develop an idea for a half-hour cable reality series. The process took roughly a month to complete, and by the end of July 2009 I had a Production Company pick up the idea and schedule a pilot shoot! I must say I was very impressed with Scott's knowledge, understanding, and professionalism. In pitching to several production companies, one even referred to him as a "Legend" in the business of development. Scott took my ideas and research and compacted it into a top caliber concept that you will likely see on the networks soon!

    I've been in TV both on and off air for 10 years, and I can tell you that Scott works wonders for a reasonable amount of money. What the success of the concept comes down to is how revolutionary you idea is and your tenacity to get it picked up. If you are thinking about hiring Scott, those with faith and determination bring dreams to reality. If Scott helps you develop the concept and you don't aggressively follow through on marketing your idea to Production Companies, you WILL NOT succeed.

    For those of you who truly believe your idea is something people need and want to see, I highly recommend Scott Manville's services. He makes the process comfortable, detailed, and affordable. If you have the right attitude from there, the rest will be history!"
