The exec of your choice will read either the first 25 pages of 4 scripts, 33 pages of 3 scripts, or the first 50 pages of 2 scripts. You'll also submit a one-pager of loglines (to include Title, Format, Genre, and Comps with each logline) for their review. Then you'll have a one-hour call with the exec to get their notes and feedback on your portfolio as a whole, as well as receive marketing and career advice. Be prepared to ask guiding questions!

Focus on what it's about and why you want to tell the story, rather than explaining what happens in the entire story.
Distinct projects that have commercial hooks and a clear audiences in mind. Big ideas in small packages are particularly attractive to me, including genre pieces that tell exciting, engaging stories with complex and relatable characters.
period dramas, giant scale original science fiction stories, and highly esoteric subjects are less interesting to me

Jay was very insightful, incredibly helpful, and very generous of his time. A "real person" who told you like it is in the industry. Seemed to have great instincts and a great handle on the market. I couldn't have been happier.

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.
