Professional Development & Writing Services for Reality TV Concepts. When a Producer turns down a project, the Writer isn't the only one disappointed. The Producer often discovers the great "idea" for a reality-series 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 formats and pitches ("treatments") to bring to Network. Take advantage of this opportunity to give your reality TV concept 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 reality TV producers and networks, Scott Manville offers independent services to consult, develop, and write your reality tv pitch at Network standards. Select any of the available options for hire below, and you will be contacted to begin work on your project. Questions regarding these services?

Also important is how he came up with several really good additions to the show format." - Jennifer Dyer / Client and Writer "Words cannot describe how thankful I am that I engaged Scott Manville and the TV Writers Vault last year to write and market my project. I have been in the television industry in production and on air for over 15 years and I have never had a more successful business relationship. In the brutal world of television, having a fabulous concept is not always enough to move things into production. It takes someone like Scott, who has the ability to bring a concept to life with his enticing writing skills and dynamic pitching ability. Without Scott’s writing expertise, my script would have just been another script among the thousands that get submitted to production companies and networks on a daily basis. Even though the television world has it’s ups and downs, Scott’s charismatic personality and honest business ethics made this process pleasant, exciting and a truly valuable learning experience. He is so knowledgeable in so many different areas of the television industry from development to production to legal contracts. After pitching the concept's treatment that Scott developed and wrote, I received multiple offers from A-List companies. He even helped me navigate through countless meetings and a few contracts that were almost signed before signing a deal with the “right" production company. Scott could have convinced me to sign with the first company that came forward, but his knowledge of what was possible and right for my deal brought better opportunity.  For that, I am so grateful. Scott was there every step of the way through this process and always available to guide me through the bumps in the road. Scott Manville is one of the few honest men left in the entertainment industry. I would recommend his service in a heartbeat to any aspiring producers or writers. Leisa Naples-Mullins On-Air Talent, Entrepreneur, Co-Executive Producer "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 concept 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!"
