Ludwig Second Channel Ad Script and Storyboard (Patreon)
Content
We thought of this one on a ride back from getting coffee and it had to come together pretty quick for Mogul Money. I think the final result ended up hitting a bit less hard in my head and felt like we had some better takes, but there wasn't a lot of time to run through drafts and be choosey. Originally I wanted a "two ludwigs on screen" moment at the end but Ludwig pushed for me throwing my pubes in there, which I think worked fine but I didn't love.
Still, I think the image and the beats come together pretty well. Ludwig is, annoyingly, very funny and cooperative during these shoots, though not the One Take Jake he rumors himself to be. Originally Michael Reeves was pitched as the science mandem, but couldn't do it on such short notice. William was perfect though, very natural at delivering lines and talked about how people in comments pissed him off, which made me instantly like him.
Kaitlin, who built the Yard set and also remodeled Ludwig's room, had to build the clone machine in 48 hours with a "just make it happen" from us, a blank check, and my shitty schematic on virtual graph paper. It turned out amazing, but I think she got 20 hours of sleep total in a two week period, yet another reason italy should never be visited by anyone, ever.
