Theme is the secret narrative engine of your story! I'm interested in what your story is about, not just on the surface level, but its deeper meaning. Let's discuss what is it you are trying to say and how that can be articulated through plot and character.
Genre (Horror, sci-fi, fantasy, superhero, etc)
High concept stories
Writer / Directors
Minority Writers (but open to anyone)
If a drama, I lean toward those with high concept / very visual execution (ex: 500 DAYS OF SUMMER, ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND).
Not interested in TV animated series
Open to animated features, but it's not my top choice.
Not as interested in adapted stories. I like working with original concepts.
Not interested in content for children.
Jarrett Lee Conaway is an award-winning writer / director repped at IAG and Echo Lake Entertainment who has developed and sold scripted series at Warner Bros TV and Universal Television. Most recently, he directed on both seasons of the hit NBC single-camera comedy GRAND CREW. His directing career launched while he was completing his MFA at the USC School of Cinematic Arts. Out of 12,000 filmmakers, he was selected by Steven Spielberg to compete for a million-dollar Dreamworks deal on the Fox reality series, ON THE LOT. Soon after, his short film TURBO starring Twilight’s Justin Chon won many awards including a College Emmy. That same year, as a Film Independent Project Involve fellow, Jarrett directed the Vimeo Staff Picked short FOOLISHLY SEEKING TRUE LOVE starring Angela Sarafyan (Westworld).
Next, Jarrett directed two seasons of the horror comedy web-series BITE ME for Lionsgate which earned three 2013 Streamy Award nominations including Best Action or Sci-Fi series. It was viewed over 35 million times. His 2016 feature debut, the Fox Digital Studio teen comedy MONO, premiered on Netflix and starred Kathryn Newton (Ant-Man: Quantumania) and Sam Lerner (The Goldbergs).
As part of NBC's 2018 Emerging Directors Program, Jarrett shadowed in Belfast, Northern Ireland on four episodes of SyFy's Superman prequel series KRYPTON. A fellow of the 2021 inaugural Netflix Film Club + Film Independent shorts program, Jarrett directed and edited the short documentary MY BROTHER JESUS, exploring the intersection of faith, art, and activism in the wake of BLM protests in Richmond, VA.
Currently, Jarrett is attached to direct a feature script he developed with Garrett E.B. Thompson, producer of the 2025 Sundance award-winning film PLAINCLOTHES.

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.
