For a Feature, what’s the hook? For a TV show, what’s the engine? What makes your characters unique? What are the comps for your project? But most of all, what makes you so passionate about your story?
*High Concept Features! Something with a slightly "magical" hook (think PALM SPRINGS or SLIDING DOORS)
*Romantic Comedies & Dramas (ideally with contained locations/ few characters that could be made on a lower budget)
*Supernatural Horror or Sci-Fi (centered around a female protagonist)
*Psychological Thriller with Darker or Erotic Elements (a darker side of romance)
*Holiday Scripts! (a new spin on Christmas IP)
*Procedural Dramas (interesting & unique workplaces, in Film or TV)
*Period Dramas with a Fresh Twist (leaning into the genre mash-up trend)
*Anything magical, character-driven, and with a hopeful and/or redemptive ending!
Allison Margaret Reid is an accomplished writer-producer based in Los Angeles. Raised in the suburbs of Atlanta by an orthopedic surgeon and an elementary school librarian, Allison jokes that growing up bisexual in a Christian household led to repression that she’s still unpacking… but also gave her a deep understanding of the importance of representation in pop culture. A high school thespian, she discovered her passion for movies at her local Blockbuster Video, which brought her to study film at USC’s School of Cinematic Arts.
Allison’s career began with internships at Adult Swim and Focus Features. She rose from Executive Assistant at Universal Pictures to Story Editor for producer Beau Flynn, and then to Director of Development at Scott Free, where she was the on-set Associate Producer for the film JUNGLELAND (TIFF 2019). Allison further honed her craft by earning an MFA in Writing for Film & TV from Emerson College, where she was named Outstanding Student of the Year. In 2021, she became Script Coordinator for an AMC Networks TV drama. Today, she teaches a seminar on “Producing for Screenwriters” to Emerson College MFA students.
As a screenwriter, Allison’s scripts have received accolades from Austin Film Festival, Ivy Film Festival, and Stowe Story Labs. Her narratives explore the intricacies of relationships by blending elements of romance, magic, and coming-of-age experiences across a wide range of genres. Committed to amplifying diverse stories through development and production, Allison is excited to offer her insights and passion to help guide and inspire screenwriters in bringing their distinctive stories to the screen.

Cancellation Policy: You may cancel your registration for a refund or Roadmap gift card if you have not yet submitted your material for review. However, once your material has been received by Roadmap, your registration cannot be canceled. Having revised material or a desire to retroactively apply a discount or gift card code are not grounds for cancellation, refunds, or gift card credit. Once your material has been submitted, the only acceptable grounds for cancellation and a refund or gift card credit is an unforeseen, ongoing emergency on the part of either the writer or the exec resulting in more than 6 weeks without any scheduling update from the exec via direct contact or Roadmap, or a sudden change in the exec's ongoing availability. In the instance of an irreconcilable scheduling issue, the writer may still receive a written feedback report from the exec. In this case, the writer is not entitled to a refund or gift card credit as the exec has read the submitted material and provided written feedback in lieu of the call.
