More about Alex Farber

Alex Farber is a television writer/producer currently working in Hollywood. Having grown up in Los Angeles, he has spent most of his life on set or in a writers room in one form or another. Having gotten his start as a P.A. (and featured extra) on MAD MEN, he quickly rose the ranks of various writers rooms, and is currently a consulting producer on a new Netflix series that is slated for production.

Along the way he has written, developed, and sold shows to Netflix, HBO, Shondaland, Annapurna, and others. Additionally, he has sold a podcast pilot to iHeartRadio, and helped adapt a podcast from Wondery (now Amazon) into a TV show. In addition to being staffed, he is also currently developing a show for Showtime (now Showtime on Paramount+).

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 at least 3-4 weeks to receive proposed times for scheduling your call with the exec.

**Please note half-hour pilot consultation material is limited to 37 pages maximum

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

MARKETING BONUS! If you receive a rating of Excellent or Virtually Flawless in at least four out of five categories (Logline and Formatting/Ease of Reading are excluded) on your consultation feedback report, we'll do one round of personalized marketing to execs (up to 5) for this screenplay for free!

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.
