Clive Frayne is an independent development producer who works in international film and theatre. As a development executive, he has worked with some of the most influential producers in British and European cinema.
He is best known for his innovative approach to development.
His ground-breaking contribution lies in the conception and implementation of process-driven development—a revolutionary methodology for nurturing screenplays. This approach has consistently demonstrated its effectiveness in translating the creative visions of writers and producers into successful cinematic productions. In the past eighteen months, two of his projects received BFI funding and three others were selected for Oscar-nominating film festivals.
Expanding his horizons, Clive is presently integrating process-driven development into the realm of professional theatre. Notably, he was the script doctor for a significant International Musical Theatre venture.
In his capacity as a visiting lecturer at the National Film and Television School in London, Clive offers valuable professional development and training to the industry. His focus encompasses screenwriting and script development, reaching a diverse array of international broadcasters and professional organisations spanning Europe and the Middle East.
His first book, ‘ The Process of Screenwriting, is the definitive work on process-driven screenplay development.
