MEETÂ THE STORYTELLER
Behind every great story is someone willing to ask better questions.
Every screenplay, television series, pitch deck, and creative partnership begins with understanding the story beneath the story. Bad To Be King Productions was built to help creators develop projects that audiences remember.
KEN HEWSKI
Screenwriter • Creative Development Consultant • Storyteller
Ken Hewski founded Bad To Be King Productions to help creators bridge the gap between inspiration and production. His experience developing original films, television series, pitch materials, and long-form stories has shaped an approach built around structure, collaboration, and authentic storytelling. Rather than simply editing scripts, Ken works alongside clients to strengthen the emotional foundation of every project while preparing it for producers, investors, production companies, and the marketplace. Whether working with first-time writers or experienced filmmakers, every collaboration begins with the same question: What story are you truly trying to tell?
