Science fiction drama, supernatural horror, elevated horror, historical drama, political drama, particularly espionage. Not generally interested in comedy, but supernatural comedy a la SHAUN OF THE DEAD, or science fiction comedy a la HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY would be of interest.
All of the above could be either one-hour series/limited or feature.
Comedy, children's programming, family programming, rom-coms, slasher/gore (other forms of horror are a favorite though!)
Laura Shapiro started her career as a concert producer before moving to film and television as a writer, producer and creative consultant on projects for HBO, Showtime, 20th Century Fox, Universal Studios, MGM, and CBS. Laura was Director of Development & Production for writer/producer/director Ed Solomon's production company for over a decade before launching her own company, Psychopomp Investigations, in 2023.
She was commissioned by the Writers Guild Foundation to edit the book, "The First Time I Got Paid For It: Writers' Tales From The Hollywood Trenches" and by the creators of the franchise to write "Bill & Ted's Most Excellent Movie Book: The Official Companion”. Her work has run the gamut of filmmaking from producing the low budget independent surf film BEAUTIFUL WAVE to creative consultant on the 2017 Universal reboot of THE MUMMY starring Tom Cruise, working with writer/director Alex Kurtzman through the entire filmmaking process. Most recently, she was Story Editor on the HBO limited series FULL CIRCLE for showrunner Ed Solomon and director Steven Soderbergh, her third collaboration with that team.

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.
