With close to a decade of professional experience in the entertainment industry, Scott Manville is most notably recognized as the Founder and President of Tell A Vision Ventures, Inc., a groundbreaking industry service used by more than 80 leading production companies and networks sourcing new written material for development and production. Operating as the TV Writers Vault, Screen Writers Vault, and Creators Vault, Manville integrated his firsthand knowledge of the development and pitching process in Hollywood to provide countless aspiring and professional Writers with a protective online method of pitching projects to buyers, essentially proving that Hollywood is not a "closed door", but a collaborative community.
Prior to launching Tell A Vision Ventures, Inc., Manville held a Co-Producer's deal with Sennet-Gernstein Entertainment, following his post as lead Development Executive for Merv Griffin Entertainment, Inc. ('97-'03).
Reporting directly to Merv Griffin, Manville created and developed original scripted and unscripted projects sold to major outlets such as Buena Vista Television ("Good Samaritan"), NBC (Bestseller John Gray's "Men Are From Mars" Talker hosted by Cybil Shepard), and others. "It was a time of incredible challenge and growth, working with a group of prolific producers. The opportunities to create original projects, or develop gameshows to pitch for Merv was an education and experience money can't buy."
Of special note: Scott Manville was the first to bring legendary cyclist Lance Armstrong the largest offer for life-story rights in television history with the pending sale of Armstrong's bestseller to TNT.
Manville continues to bolster opportunities for his associates by expanding his brand within the entertainment communities. He is a current member of NATPE (National Association of Television Program Executives).
