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.

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."

"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."

"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!"
