One specific mandate for me currently is looking for films that can shoot in the state of Virginia (or, if not specific to Virginia, "Anywhere USA"). Those falling into the 2 Million and Under category, even better. However, that is just one column for what I am seeking and I am quite open-minded these days to projects that ideally have a level of commercial potential and where there are meaningful packaging opportunities on the talent and filmmaker side.
Known for championing talent, Bobby Hoppey has over a decade of experience in film and television development. Bobby’s executive experience includes indie finance shops Complementary Colors, Valparaiso Pictures, and Echo Lake Entertainment where he oversaw their respective in-house project slates.
His past producorial credits include Neon's PIG starring Nicolas Cage (streaming on Hulu), and the LGBTQ rom-com STRAIGHT UP - both Independent Spirit Award nominees. His latest film, the subversive coming-of-age comedy GRIFFIN IN SUMMER, is expected to be released later this year and recently won the U.S. Narrative Competition Prize at the 2024 Tribeca Festival.
Bobby currently has a number of feature projects in development through his new production shingle, Coveside Films. He holds a bachelor's degree in Journalism and Corporate Communications from Elon University.

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.
