From Idea to Screen
In-House Creative Services · Professional Industry Partner Program
Two distinct services. One continuous pathway. We develop original content entirely in-house — romantic comedies, character-driven dramas, and stories with real heart — then connect each development-ready project to the right professional crew, locations specialist, and production infrastructure through P.I.P.P.
In-House Creative Services
Every project begins with us — in the room, from the first idea. We write original screenplays, series bibles, and pitch packages entirely in-house. No adaptations. No licensed IP. Full creative ownership from concept through final draft. The four services below represent the complete in-house development pipeline.
Original Screenplay & Script Development
We develop original screenplays from the ground up — working with writers at every stage to shape voice, structure, and story into a production-ready script. No adaptations. No licensed IP. Every word is ours.
- Original concept origination
- Scene-by-scene structural development
- Dialogue and voice refinement
- Production-ready final draft
Story Development from Concept to Draft
From a single idea to a polished draft, we guide the creative process at every step — shaping narrative, refining structure, and protecting the integrity of the story through every revision.
- Concept development and logline
- Outline and treatment creation
- Draft-by-draft story refinement
- Final polish and script lock
Series Bible & Pitch Package Creation
We build the full pitch package: series bible, tone document, character breakdowns, and visual language — everything a broadcaster or financier needs to say yes.
- Series bible and episode breakdowns
- Tone document and visual language guide
- Character profiles and arc mapping
- Broadcaster-ready pitch deck
Creative Producing from Day One
Our producers are in the room from the first conversation. We don't come in at the end — we build alongside you, ensuring the creative vision survives every stage of development.
- Producer attachment from concept
- Creative oversight through development
- Financing and partnership strategy
- Readiness assessment for P.I.P.P. entry
Professional Industry
Partner Program
P.I.P.P.
The Professional Industry Partner Program is not a co-production arrangement or a distribution deal. It is a structured production pathway — a contractual framework that takes a development-ready project and connects it to the professional infrastructure needed to bring it to screen.
In-House Creative Services builds the project. The P.I.P.P. brings it to life. When a project exits development — script locked, pitch package complete, financing strategy in place — it enters the P.I.P.P. pipeline and moves through four structured phases to production.
The result is creative continuity from the first draft to the final cut — with Little Big Time Productions maintaining oversight at every stage.

From development exit to final cut — a deliberate, structured pathway that protects the story at every stage of production.
The Entry Point
Readiness Review
When a project reaches development maturity — script locked, pitch package complete, financing strategy in place — it enters the P.I.P.P. pipeline. We assess budget range, format requirements, and production scope before moving forward.
- Script and package review
- Budget range assessment
- Format and scope analysis
- Financing strategy alignment
P.I.P.P. Core
Crew Matching
The heart of the program. We match each project with a professional crew suited to its specific needs — budget, format, genre, and vision. Every match is deliberate. We do not send a feature film crew to a docuseries, or a low-budget team to a high-concept production.
- Director of Photography placement
- Production designer & art department
- Editor, sound & post-production crew
- Below-the-line crew across all departments
Atlantic & Beyond
Location Consultation
We connect every project with a locations specialist for consultation — whether shooting in Atlantic Canada or beyond. Our network spans Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, PEI, and Newfoundland, with access to national and international location resources.
- Atlantic Canada location specialist access
- Permit & logistics consultation
- Location scouting coordination
- National & international location resources
Concept to Film
Production
With crew matched and locations confirmed, the project moves into production under a coordinated framework. Little Big Time Productions maintains creative oversight throughout — ensuring the story that was developed in-house is the story that reaches the screen.
- Production coordination & oversight
- Creative continuity from page to screen
- Budget & schedule management support
- Post-production pipeline coordination
The Program Is Open To
Both In-House Creative Services and the P.I.P.P. are open to the right partners. Whether you're bringing a story, a crew, a budget, or a broadcast territory — there is a place for you in this pipeline.
Writers & Creators
You have a story worth telling. We have the development infrastructure and production pathway to take it from concept to screen. Submit your original idea and let us build it together.
Co-Production Partners
Broadcasters, streamers, and co-producers looking for original Atlantic Canadian content with a clear production pathway. Our slate is development-ready and P.I.P.P.-eligible.
Professional Crew
Experienced crew across all departments — DPs, editors, production designers, sound, costume, makeup. Join the P.I.P.P. network and be matched to projects that fit your expertise.
Financiers & Investors
Projects entering the P.I.P.P. pipeline have completed development, locked scripts, and a defined production scope. You are investing in work that is ready — not work that is still becoming.
"We don't adapt. We originate. And we don't stop at the page."
In-House Creative Services builds the story. The P.I.P.P. brings it to screen. We built the bridge so the story doesn't get lost between the two.
