About

*Watch the webinar to get to know some of the Mentors of the GPS Fellowship*


Roadmap Writers has helped over 300 screenwriters sign with industry representation in just six years. We pride ourselves on partnering with the best and brightest industry professionals the entertainment world has to offer to develop the most promising up-and-coming screenwriters.


We focus on the quality of education rather than the quantity of numbers in our programming. We pride ourselves on getting to know each writer individually and doing our best to cater to their individual needs. Because it takes so much investment, time, and care to champion and launch a writer’s professional career, we focus work on Career Writers over hobbyists. Each program is taught by passionate working executives with a proven track record.  Roadmap is the only screenwriting organization that has a fully guided tiered program that will help you build an incredibly strong foundation for lasting career success. That is why we developed the GPS Fellowship Program.


What is the GPS Fellowship?

GPS stands for GUIDANCE, PORTFOLIO DEVELOPMENT, and STRATEGY. 

 

Committed to boosting access, exposure, and opportunities for emerging writers, the Roadmap Writers GPS Fellowship is a six-month program with three main goals:

 

  • Build relationships between Mentees and Industry Reps.

  • Help Writers sharpen their craft via Executive Mentors.

  • Develop interpersonal skills crucial for breaking into and succeeding in the industry.


Benefits

What does the GPS Felowship consist of?

 

Each Season, we will select four emerging writers from a competitive applicant pool. In addition to being part of a tight-knit peer network, the program is designed to help the fellows develop a career action plan and offer ongoing support. Selected Mentees will receive the following:

 

  • 6 monthly one-on-one strategy and note sessions with their Executive Mentor.

  • Peer workshops. 

  • Small-group, industry insider chats with Agents, Managers, Execs, and Fellowship Mentors.

  • A half-day mock writer's room, exposing Mentees to what's expected in a real room.

The culmination of the fellowship includes in-person meetings with RoadCrew, Mentors, and other industry Executives in L.A (travel, meals, and lodging not included.)
