Particularly Interested In (Film/TV)

Genre TV is my bread and butter, including sci-fi, fantasy and horror. I'd lean more into original stories or inspired by something outside the industry/LA Narrative bubble.

More about Ryan Mickels

Ryan Mickels has worked more than 11 years in Current Programming at Universal Content Productions under the NBCUniversal conglomerate. Ryan brings a deep understanding of television storytelling from development through production and post. Before moving into Current Programming, Ryan worked in management and on set, building a well-rounded perspective on both the creative and practical sides of television development, packaging and production.

Throughout his career, Ryan worked closely with writers, producers, showrunners, Studio and Network creative teams from broadcast, animation to streaming platforms. With over 700 episodes under his belt, Ryan loves to cultivate story, strengthen characters, and help series reach their full potential. Being a genre nerd at heart, Ryan's approach to notes is collaborative, thoughtful, and grounded in the belief that the best work comes from a strong creative partnership in order to cultivate rather than force a great story.

How it Works

After registering, you will receive instructions on how to submit your material in your order confirmation email. Please be sure to select Career Coaching as your consultation type on your material submission form, so that you are able to submit all supplemental materials on the same form. Provide your script, writer bio, and one-pager of loglines (to include Title, Format, Genre, and Comps with each logline). Be sure to note which loglines are for already drafted screenplays, and which are for scripts that have yet to be completed. 

After submitting your material, please allow about 3-4 weeks to receive proposed times for scheduling your call with the exec. If you haven't heard from your exec by the 3-4 week mark about scheduling, please email terra@roadmapwriters.com so we know to check in with them on your behalf about their proposed dates/ETA for you. 

**Please note feature screenplays are limited to 120 pages maximum, hour pilots 65 pages maximum, and single-cam half-hour pilots 35 pages maximum. Please contact terra@roadmapwriters.com for pricing on a consultation for a screenplay exceeding these page limits.

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.
