Where the Idea
Finds Its Shape.
From a blank page to a greenlit pitch — we build the creative foundation that gets projects made.
From a blank page to a greenlit pitch — we build the creative foundation that gets projects made.
Great projects don't appear fully formed. They start with a clear creative vision, a precise understanding of the market, and the materials required to sell that vision to the right buyers.
HMG's development work sits at that intersection. We've developed feature films, original series, unscripted formats, and branded concepts that have sold to Amazon Prime, NBC, Lifetime, Great American Family, and others. We know what a network wants to see on a title page — and we know what a producer needs to hear in the room.
Whether you're bringing us an idea that's been kicking around for years or an IP that needs a smart take to crack it open, we treat every project like it's the one that could change a slate.
A comprehensive suite of development services, tailored to your project's scale, format, and destination — delivered with the craft and industry instinct of over fifteen years across TV and film.
Coverage that moves scripts forward.
Script coverage is meant to open doors. Too often, it just closes them. dev|cut. was built to change that — finding what's standing between a script's strengths and a 'yes', delivering a clear path forward. Deep, layered analysis across structure, character, dialogue, and format — even buyer-fit, something virtually no other coverage service attempts. One guiding philosophy drives all of it: great coverage is a creative ally, not a gatekeeper.
A four-stage approach that moves fast, keeps quality uncompromised, and builds toward a deliverable you can put in front of a buyer.

Whether it's a napkin logline or a finished draft ready for a network push, we'd love to talk about how we can help bring it to life.
