Looking for the next great horror comedy in the vein of the original SCREAM, always open to coming-of-age stories or family dramas, stories of messed up suburbia, dark comedy/thrillers a la THE MENU or throwback romcoms in the vein of something like SET IT UP. Always looking for the next movie that could be a Sundance darling or a festival favorite.
On the television side, compelling streaming dramas generally set in contemporary times or biting half-hours a la HACKS/30 ROCK/THE BEAR.

MARKETING BONUS!

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.
