More about Kurt Conner

Kurt Conner is the former Director of Development at Ubisoft Film & Television, where he produced and developed various projects based on well known video game IP - such as 'Assassin's Creed" for Netflix, WATCH DOGS for New Regency, and JUST DANCE for Sony - as well as original concepts based in the realm of gaming, including "Mythic Quest" for Apple TV Plus.

While there, he was responsible for working directly with top-level creatives, writers, and directors to develop story materials and scripts, fostering strong relationships with external partners at leading studios and networks such as Netflix, Sony, Amazon, Disney, and Paramount, and providing creative solutions to bring their projects to fruition.

He also led several strategic initiatives, including establishing and managing international writing labs in Brazil and India, running a fellowship for emerging female writers, and spearheading the development of original film and TV projects beyond Ubisoft's well-known IP.

Prior to Ubisoft, Kurt worked in nearly every facet of the entertainment industry - from Production to Post-Production on the hit Nickelodeon shows ICARLY and VICTORIOUS and even representation, working with clients such as Kevin Bacon, Kevin Costner and Nicole Richie. He got his start in film development at Paramount Pictures where he was lucky enough to work on all of the CLOVERFIELD projects with JJ Abram's Bad Robot as well as the FRIDAY THE 13th remake with Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes.

How it Works

After registering, you will receive instructions on how to submit your material in your order confirmation email. After submitting your material, please allow 3-4 weeks to receive proposed times for scheduling your consult with the exec.

PITCH DECKS: These are visually-driven documents (20 pages max) that use images and short paragraphs of text to demonstrate the tone, world, character insight, key plot points, stakes, and theme of the series or feature. If the Pitch Deck is for a show, it will use some of the same sections of text as your Series Bible, but will be less extensive. When creating a pitch deck, always make sure that you are using images of a consistent size and quality, and that you use the same font, color code, margins, and other design specifications throughout. Click here for a Pitch Deck example! Want more insight? Consider signing up for our Creating Professional Level Pitch Decks webinar

SERIES BIBLES: These supplemental documents are text-only (20 pages max), and can get requested when marketing any sort of TV show. Among other things, they should demonstrate what makes your characters unique and captivating, the focus and evolution of their arcs, the rules of the world, the hook of the story engine, the intended tone and theme, as well as why YOU are the best person to write this show from this perspective. Here's example #1 and example #2.  Note: The formatting and organization of Series Bibles has changed since these examples were created, but addressing these sections in your own Series Bible will be a great starting point to make sure you're answering questions before they're asked. 

**Please note series bibles and pitch decks are each limited to 20 pages maximum. Please contact terra@roadmapwriters.com for pricing on a consultation for material exceeding 20 pages.

Be sure to familiarize yourself with Roadmap's Code of Conduct.

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.
