i used to spend hours trying to plan a video

and still have no idea what i was actually trying to say i would make an outline rewrite scrap it

and start all over again or i'd skip it all

and just start filming hoping i would figure it all out in the edit

but then i'd be staring at a messy timeline with no

clue what the story was actually supposed to be i was

overthinking totally getting lost in the details until i started doing something

so stupidly simple i couldn't believe it actually worked five lines that's it

and suddenly every story clicked you know most comments i get are about my storytelling

so today i'll show you a little secret because

when you've written down these five lines you've got a blueprint to create a story

and a script

that actually makes people feel something to create something with a

heart you know before youtube i ran my own video agency together with a friend

and we created all kinds of stuff we did a lot of commercials we made series small documentaries

and you know i always loved to do crazy stuff come up with crazy concepts weird transitions in the scripts

and i think really made the the advertisements

and the videos we made a lot more awesome

but what i kept bumping into over and over again it doesn't matter

if you're alone or working with a big crew

or doing youtube filmmaking is a lot of decision making

and what happens time after time

that in this chaos of decision making you're losing the core of the story

and this is a big issue

because the core of your story is one of the most important things

because if you don't know what the story is really about no editing trick

or no camera trick is going to save you from that

so then how do you get clear what your story is

actually about well that's where the five line story method comes in

so this is the method

that i've been using to create almost all my story driven

videos the only thing you have to do is write five lines

so watch this

so your first line will be about the situation that's the starting point where are we

and what's happening

and how does the world look like where we're in the second line will be about the desire

so what does the character want what does he want to obtain

or what does he want to reach the third line is

about the conflict what gets in the way where's the tension

or what is an obstacle that makes it hard to reach the desire?

Then the fourth line is going to be about change.

So what happens that shifts something?

This could be a turning point in the story,

something big or something small,

or just a different way of seeing something.

And then the fifth and last line is going to be the result.

So how does it end?

What's the new reality?

And how is the situation different now from when we started?

Now this might all sound very simple and easy,

But believe me when I say that simple is good with filmmaking.

Because these five lines will help you to see the whole story before you get distracted by everything else.

By gear transitions, voiceovers, endless color grading, you name it.

There are so many details and so many choices to be made.

So if you nail these five lines first,

you've got the emotional core of your story.

It's like the life thread.

Now I'm going to explain you why this works so well.

But first I want to show you a little example of how even big Hollywood films use this structure for their movies.

So let me show you with a story that you definitely know, The Lying King.

Let's start with the situation.

Simba is a young prince excited to one day rule the Pride Lands.

The desire, he wants to prove he's brave and worthy of being a king.

The conflict, after his father's death Simba runs away ashamed and afraid to face his past.

Then the change.

Simba grows up and with help from his friends and a vision from his father,

Simba returns to confront Scar and take his place as a king.

And the result, he restores balance to the pride lands and steps fully into who he was meant to be.

So obviously there's missing quite some details to make the story a little bit richer,

but it is the whole story.

And the funny thing is,

once I started using this method,

I started seeing this in every movie that i saw

and probably you will too now next time when you watch a movie you will probably see

the point where the conflict is introduced or where the desire is introduced

so i'm sorry if no movie will be the same anymore for you

but you know it's not just a beginner's trick it's just how almost every story works

so now let's break down each line to see why it

actually matters the situation where we are is very important

because it gives the viewer a clear starting point of where we are,

what's happening and who's in the story.

They will know the world that we're in and what we're actually talking about.

The desire that really shows the goal or the need that's driving the story.

And this usually really sparks the curiosity of the audience.

And this is the part where people will lean more into the story

and they start to care about whether you're getting the thing or not.

And the audience will start to feel invested in the story.

And maybe the thing that the main character wants is something they want as well.

So the third one, the conflict introduces tension or an obstacle.

And this is really something that stories need.

Because if there's no tension,

there's no obstacle if there's no challenge there's not really a reason to keep watching for the audience

so the fourth one is change

and this really marks a turning point in the story

so it could be an insight or an action or anything

that shifts everything you know it really shows growth

and it gives the audience the feeling of movement forward the fifth result

so this should really give your audience a satisfying takeaway a feeling of closure

and ending and it should be something

100

that ties everything of the whole story together

101

and it shows how the world or the situation

102

or the character is different from the starting point together these

103

five lines are just how we naturally process every story

104

so i'm going to show you an example of how these

105

five lines actually play out in one of my own youtube videos

106

but first i want you to know

107

that these five lines aren't your whole video they are some

108

sort of launch pad you can use them to kick off your story and start building

109

from your five lines or you can use them to come back at any time

110

when your project is overwhelming you to take a look again at your five lines

111

and to see the things that you are building in your story

112

if you can connect them back to one of your five lines okay

113

so now i'm going to show you how one of my

114

own youtube videos that's over eight minutes long can be downgraded

115

to just five lines watch this i'm a filmmaker from the netherlands

116

and i've loved making videos since i was a kid

117

My dream was to be a YouTuber and sharing stories from the heart,

118

not just for clients.

119

But every time I tried to start,

120

self-doubt and overthinking pulled me back.

121

When I let go of the YouTube dream,

122

I finally realized I was focusing on the wrong reasons and I just wanted to create stories.

123

So I finally sat down and started,

124

and this video is the result.

125

And that first step pushed me to go all in on this YouTube journey.

126

So that was basically the whole story of my first YouTube video in 5 lights.

127

And now the cool thing is,

128

when you can do it with 5 lines,

129

you can do it with 10 as well.

130

Watch this.

131

I'm a filmmaker from the Netherlands and I've loved making videos since I was a kid.

132

My dream was to be a YouTuber and sharing stories from the heart,

133

not just for clients.

134

But every time I tried to start,

135

self-doubt and overthinking pulled me back.

136

My mind kept yelling, you can't go from making ads for big companies to making YouTube videos.

137

Those fears became excuses.

138

I'm too late, I'm too old,

139

I don't have enough skills, gear, security.

140

So I let go of the big YouTube dream and at first it felt good and I felt free.

141

But then the same question kept coming back.

142

Why did I actually want to do YouTube all the time?

143

When I stripped away views,

144

subscribers and money, I realized it's about the joy of creating and sharing stories.

145

That realization made me push through self-doubts,

146

focus on the process and the video you're watching right now is the result of that.

147

It wasn't easy, but I already learned so much

148

and it even made me go all in on YouTube and share every lesson along the way.

149

So going from 5 lines to 10 lines doesn't change the core of the story,

150

it just adds more richness and more details.

151

And I could show you the 20 line version now as well,

152

but I think you get the point.

153

I could continue showing you more lines until I show you the whole video.

154

So if you can do five lines,

155

you can expand and expand more and create a whole story.

156

So you've seen now how these five lines can help you to guide an entire video.

157

But if you find it still really hard to create your own story driven videos or to finish them,

158

or you just want to become a better storyteller by actually creating something instead of watching endless tutorials like this one,

159

then you could get my Story Starter Kit.

160

It will help you to turn your five lines into an actual shot list.

161

It helps you to edit your story with my editing templates.

162

And it guides you step by step with a video walkthrough.

163

With a lot of extra tips and inspiration.

164

I just launched the kit last month.

165

So it's still available for a launch price.

166

I think it's very affordable.

167

And if it might be something for you,

168

just check out the link in the description.

169

And if not, really not a problem.

170

You can still use this method for your next project.

171

So thanks for watching and if you now want to know the 9 only simple shots

172

that I use to create any story with,

173

you can watch this video next.

174

Cheers!
