Like you said, while the random, day in the life type of vlogs are great for people who know you, I find the second one to be a lot better. Some of my RUclips friends over here started doing walking videos, and each one will have some sort of random climax that happens, but everybody waits around to find out what that is.
8:25 5 C's: 9:05 CONTEXT - put your viewer into the story. What's going on? Who are the people involved? What kind of backstory do you need to tell to get your viewer up to speed so they know where the story is leading. So it's basically an introduction. 10:06 COMPLICATION/ CONFLICT - What is in the way of getting from point A to point B within the story, things that create an obstacle towards achieving your goal. 10:30 CHALLENGES - Anything standing in your way is a challenge. 11:20 CLIMAX - The resolution. Overcoming the obstacles, challenges, bumps and turns within the story 11:55 CONSEQUENCE - What's the take away such as new experience, learning, new ways of thinking...basically a conclusion of everything you've been through within the experience. Metaphorically speaking what is the mountain you're climbing and how did you climb it?
Hi Jeven. Als always a great video; I liked that part where you summarized the 3 types of vlogging. I really like your very clear way of story telling; always to the point and you don't miss out important things. I have been following you now since 2 years and some of your tips have been really useful to me. If you ever come to Switzerland, I would be glad showing you around. We have a droners paradise here; very liberal drone laws. It's really great to be up in the Swiss Alps for droning.
This is my favorite kind of content you do and where I feel like you really shine. I am going to work hard to integrate your story-telling tips into my own videos. Thank you !
This was so well explained, thank you! It’s so easy to just say “story is king”, but actually breaking it down for a vlog format *with and example* is super helpful.
Thank you so much Jevern! I’m working on my story telling, my channel is about cycling but I don’t want it to be about me on a bike, I want to use my pedaling to deliver a greater message, I’m just starting so this tips are gold for me!
Jeven, while I watch all of your "technical" videos, too, I feel THIS is where you really shine and separate yourself from other camera and film channels. I've struggled for years with the storytelling process, and it seemed like everyone explained it the same -- "beginning, middle, end" -- way, but never actually explained what they meant by that. You are seriously the first person I've seen go over specifics on how to do it. I'm now delving into your Skillshare courses, too. You have a subscriber for life, sir. Keep up the amazing work, and please know you are making a difference! 🙂
Thanks for this! I've heard this so many times that I need more story in my videos and I never knew what they meant. Thanks for breaking it down and actually showing an example of that! Perfectly done!
Love these. I can't tell you how much I've learned from watching your videos. I know the tutorials/reviews get all the views on your channel, but I don't think I'm alone in wanting more "Adventure Series" content!
Even though I have an extremely limited audience and no real desire to be a youtuber - I do want to make whatever I do to be at least less terrible and these tips should go a long way towards that! Super relevant since it is nice enough today that I've got all the stuff ready to go and film an attempt at flying a very toy-grade drone lifting a gopro. Hopefully this one is more interesting than the last one where the drone couldn't lift it...
Awesome info bro. I like how you made it easy to understand. Some creators say the same stuff you just pointed out but never go into how to implement what they just said. Thanks again keep killin it bro
Just wanted to let you know that the video you did similar to this ( the one you suggested at the end) really helped me out. Most of the techniques I use was all learning from your videos, thank for being a great teacher!! Take care buddy!
Really really good advice - Most of us forget to explain the path is more than going from A-B-C, its actually only 10% of the journey. Well said and great video - always know I will learn something when I get a notification from you man 💪🏼
Fantastic explanation. Had my channel humming along REALLY well before life happened and my uploads became irregular and everything tanked. Trying to get it back up with a different style. This is very helpful, thank you!
watching this makes me want to start vlogging again. I used to vlog over on my travel channel before the big C happened. But then started this new channel. I think vlogging is a fun creative way to learn new techniques.
Great advice! As someone who's just getting started your videos have given me a ton to think about and keep in mind as we start to produce our content.
Even, nice job. As a retired speech, English and video production teacher, I found myself giving you high marks is all areas. I am now entering the realm of production again and you remind me of how exciting doing the video was when I had students creating those stories. Thanks for the cup of inspiration. I look forward to checking out more of your stuff.
Hiya Jeven, Thank you so much for creating this! The simplicity of your message is exactly what I needed to restart my vision of wanting to create content. I greatly appreciate you -Thank you! 🙏
I’ve just started trying to tell a story in my videos now. My channel is a bit all over the place at times mainly down to time restraints dictating the type of video i make, so not all are story telling but my aim is to do a lot more of it. Thanks for sharing this, its really helpful.
I’m definitely trying to do more #2 with travel photography! Could you provide more channel examples for #3 (story telling style)? Thank you for this!🙌🏼
I've been shooting tutorial videos to help new musicians with theory. Often thought about a vlog based around my learning because even though I'm a teacher, I still have a teacher. Not sure about how that would fit with stories though.
Now I hate you 😂 I'm watching at 2 am and I'm taking notes ... then at the end you tell us there's a link in the description to a list of all the notes I just took. Thanks for teaching us. I've built some big RUclips channels in the past for other people. Now it's my turn and I'm learning so much from great creators like you and Casey that give back so much. Thank you.
00:00 🎥 Introduction: The video discusses vlogging and storytelling and their interconnection, with insights from the creator's personal experience. 02:03 🎬 Types of Vlogs: Three common types of vlogs are explained - casual hanging out, themed content, and story-driven narratives, each with distinct engagement strategies. 08:23 📚 How to Tell a Story: Utilize the 5Cs framework - Context, Complication, Challenges, Climax, Consequence - to craft engaging narratives, applicable to various storytelling formats. 10:03 📖 5Cs Framework: Breakdown of the 5Cs framework for storytelling, providing a structured approach to narrative creation for vlogs and other content.
Thanks Jeven. Casey Niestat was my inspiration in the early days but what a unique character. He certainly knows the art of story telling.This is a very good explanation. cheers Geoff
I think Potato Jet & Jason Vong are great at the 2nd type of vlog. Jason doesn't even call them "reviews" but instead "user experience". Your videos are always very informative for me, thanks!
Another awesome video explaining what I’m trying to figure out. I’d say I’m working on making videos like the second scenario you explained (work vlog). Thanks for the helpful info!
agree, its easy to say but not easy to do thank brother this video make me insteresting and i can understand cause my english poor but this I knew . from indonesia
Great video, thanks Jeven! Some very useful tips here and I definitely plan to apply the 5 Cs method in my future videos. I was also highly inspired by Casey Neistat's Vlog/simple documentary type film making and I have been going at my channel for a few years now. Hoping to make 2022 a productive year and bring lots of new and exciting content.
I Think I Got It What I Want To Create ❤️🙃 Means a Lot Brother I Was Super Duper Confused...I Love Both Vlog & Tech Bt I Didn't No It Is Really Senseble or Anything...You Just Cleared Me Bro ❤️
Happy New Year my friend! Great new video, so good to see this new video... Great content. Love the 5 C's concept and your breakdown of these 3 main vlog types. Thanks man!
Super insightful breakdown of vlogs and storytelling. I've always struggled with the vlog format even though it is the backbone of my videos. Sometimes in a vlog the story can be hard to find, especially if nothing goes wrong and there aren't complications or challenges to overcome. I ride this line between being honest about what really happened and trying to up the stakes or find conflict that might not be there. This is especially the case when you are struggling to gain audience. You want to craft an interesting story, but at the same time let what unfolds in front of the camera be unscripted. What do you do in those instances when the 5Cs can't be satisfied? Does that video just never see the light of day?

hi very nice and good information thanks,,, what the name and model of mic you use and is it work with go pro 10 🇮🇶🇮🇶🇮🇶
Great tips! (And btw, that DJI mic sounded crispy 👌)

Thanks for posting this, Jeven. This was a super clear, easy to understand structure.
The best part about your latest videos is that both the message and cinematic presentation are top notch.
Thank you so much Jevern! I’m working on my story telling, my channel is about cycling but I don’t want it to be about me on a bike, I want to use my pedaling to deliver a greater message, I’m just starting so this tips are gold for me!

I had a great time making a VlogPocalypse Holiday special and I'm still here learning new styles, thanks for always being such a great resource. 🌱☀️📺💯
Thank you Jeven for this very informative video! I plan on using the story telling tips you provided when I make my upcoming videos!
Love these. I can't tell you how much I've learned from watching your videos. I know the tutorials/reviews get all the views on your channel, but I don't think I'm alone in wanting more "Adventure Series" content!
More adventures coming. I have one I'm finishing up right now and working on ideas for what I can do in the next few months.
@@JevenDovey Can't wait, bro. Safe travels!
There’s always something new to learn here. Thanks for taking the time to make these helpful videos👍
Was searching this a couple wks ago! Thanks for breaking it down👏🏼

Great stuff. My primary channel has definitely includes all three types of vlogging, but primarily the first and third.
Fantastic explanation. Had my channel humming along REALLY well before life happened and my uploads became irregular and everything tanked. Trying to get it back up with a different style. This is very helpful, thank you!
I just went each of the story structure it is very helpful as I will try to implement it for my vlogs.
I just started a daily vlog. I cant believe how much work it is.
watching this makes me want to start vlogging again. I used to vlog over on my travel channel before the big C happened. But then started this new channel. I think vlogging is a fun creative way to learn new techniques.
Great advice! As someone who's just getting started your videos have given me a ton to think about and keep in mind as we start to produce our content.
Great video, I'd love to see more videos about the second style of vlog. I've been searching for weeks about how to create tutorials as vlog style
Thank you for the story telling information, going to try to use it in my channel
You don't hold anything back. Please more content. Thank you!
Glad this video popped up! This year I’ll be working on improving my story telling. ☺️
Thank you, I really enjoyed your approach and will use this format in my next few videos.
Thanks for the very helpful idea for making my video more creative

Great video Jeven. I’ve only just found your channel and instantly subscribed.
The way you craft these videos is really amazing.

Such fantastic video and content. I’ve been coming up with a lot of ideas for my drone videos but lacked of structure and this video has what I need.
Your analysis is very perceptive and smart. This is something you have clearly thought about a lot and should explore more deeply in future videos.
Appreciate this, Jeven. I've made a template for planning my RUclips videos that now includes a "Jeven Dovey story structure" outline. Thank you!
This was a very well made video and very educational. Thanks for the tips jeven.
Thanks Jeven for sharing this. I learn something new everytime from you👍
Now I hate you 😂

Really great example of the 5c’s. Definitely finish your climbing videos.
