A Casey Neistat Storytelling Masterclass

[@drmatthewhorkey]

This video deserves WAAAYYY more views… storytelling, soooo difficult because it comes from repetition, trial & error, and a lot of failure

[@purenrg4life]

ditto! nice work dude!

[@barsgul9370]

ikr i was watching it thinking this dude is also a great storyteller probably get great views. surprised to see only 4k. way to go this channels creater!

[@creatorsecrets]

You guys 🙏🏻 It was indeed a lot, LOT of failure 🥲 Actually, it seems like the video is now getting picked up by the algorithm, so let's see where it will take us. (Hope I didn't jinx it, but appreciate transparency more 😅)

[@purenrg4life]

@@creatorsecrets good for you dude

[@TheThinkersBible]

Very insightful statement, and very true. The failure part is one that's tough to face, but realizing one's shortcomings is absolutely crucial for growth and for improving.

[@brotherearth]

I almost never comment on videos, but just wanted to let you know this was really well done. Keep it up man.

[@creatorsecrets]

That makes me appreciate your comment even more! Thanks so, so much ☺️

[@RensvanDaalen]

Tom, these storytelling breakdown vids are insane. Pure gold ! Love how you film and edit them. Subscribed and looking forward to more ! 👊🏼

[@creatorsecrets]

Welcome aboard! En hey Rens, groetjes vanuit de zuider buren :) Mercikes voor de geweldige comment en de lieve woorden! 🙏🏻

[@elgiad007]

I mean, this was incredible. It completely adhered to the ideas you were trying to get out and even told a little story in the process. Well done!

[@creatorsecrets]

Wow, thank you! It took a lot of planning and editing 😅 AND THIS GUY DID IT FOR YEARS 🥲 Anyway, thanks for the kind words!

[@elgiad007]

@@creatorsecrets It's mind-blowing to think of how much effort and dedication goes into vlogging on that level. I do it occasionally and it can take days to edit a couple of hours worth of footage that ultimately makes 01:30 long video, and I don't put nearly the effort that you or Casey do 😀

[@matheusdaring]

what a great video, dude. you explained in a way i haven't seen in the recent history of filmmaking youtube. just subscribed! cheers from brazil

[@creatorsecrets]

Awesome Matheus!! It's becoming a real worldwide community, love it! And thanks so much for the support, means everything 🙋🏻‍♂️

[@rick2bees]

The algorithm presented me this gem. You've done your homework and made a great video that keeps people hooked till the end....👌

[@creatorsecrets]

I'm happy the algorithm got to connect us haha! Thanks for watching and for the awesome words Rick 😃

[@TheThinkersBible]

This is a masterclass in how to analyze the work of a master storyteller. Outstanding work you're doing.

[@creatorsecrets]

Glad to have you here again ☺️ And thanks for all the kind words!!

[@TheThinkersBible]

@@creatorsecrets you're very welcome. Actually this is the first of your videos I watched (it was a on my home page) and I binge watched the other two. I took a number of notes on this one and am thinking about how to incorporate them in a mini-documentary I'm planning for the near future.

[@InternetCity]

Dude! THIS WAS AMAZING!

[@creatorsecrets]

Thanks bro (or guys!) Seal of approval is much appreciated! 🙏🏻

[@kitchenko]

great job and very thorough analysis of Casey's approach 👍

[@creatorsecrets]

THANKS SIR 🙏🏻 Slowly but steadily, now I just need to keep up with the quality 😅

[@ironicdreamsonfire755]

Also thanks for including the the act 1,2,3 timeline drawing , extremely helpful. Especially for adhd people like me. Really appreciate all effort you put into this video. Much Respect ✌️

[@creatorsecrets]

Sorry for the suuuper late reply, just seeing it now! And you're welcome!! I always prefer visuals myself, so I try to incorporate them as much as I can 😄

[@PlazaSakini]

I really liked your videos, especially masterclass videos. I think you analyzed those creators very detailed. When I check your numbers I was surprised. Your subscriber count and views shouldn't be low. Plase keep up with your amazing work. Good luck. 🍀

[@AcervoTricolor]

Congrats bro, you did such great job explaining all those complex stuff. You deserve more subs BTW! take care bro

[@creatorsecrets]

Much appreciated!! And slow and steady wins the race right? 😄 Thanks for stopping buy! and go get them as well 🙏🏻😎

[@KyleJess]

Bro.... Seriously keep going, you've building something real here for sure. Just watched a couple of your videos and some really great stuff! Vlogging might be something you don't feel comfortable with, but DO NOT stop building what you're building!

[@creatorsecrets]

I appreciate hearing all this! I really do 🥹 I don't know what this is yet, but I promise I won't stop 😄

[@LarsWagner]

way toooo underrated this video, GREAT job !!

[@creatorsecrets]

Thank you so much!! Hope it could help you on your vlogging journey! Looks like you made quite the trip 😄

[@mehdio]

Amazing to discover another Belgian KZbinr trying to push great content inspired by Casey! :) Well done!

[@creatorsecrets]

Yay! Thank you Tom (great name is I say so myself) Posted a new video a few hours ago 😃

[@tylerismyname]

Fantastic video. Storytelling is always a difficult topic to verbalize because it's such a broad concept (there are so many ways of telling a story!) but you did an amazing job with it! Excited to watch more of your videos

[@creatorsecrets]

Thank you so much! 😃 And I know what you mean! Actually if you look at the Matt D'Avella video I made you'll see how much fun it can be to visualise a good story... just a LOT of work 😅

[@tylerismyname]

This is a GREAT breakdown, man - and awesome how you illustrated everything you were saying in your shooting / edit. Really good stuff - earned my sub for sure! 👊🏻

[@creatorsecrets]

Thanks Brian! Glad to have you as part of the creator team! Really appreciate the kind words 🥹 How's that becoming a public speaker challenge going? 😄

[@itsrob2321]

Casey also says people can forgive a poorly shot video as long as you have a good story, so just do it and you’ll get better as you practice. With that said, keep up the good work.

[@creatorsecrets]

You got to put in the 10.000 hours 😎 Thanks Rob!!

[@bchatzakis]

Dude!!! nailed that one! keep them coming!

[@JohannesDalen]

This was well made. And vlogging in public? Just the thought of it makes me blush 😅

[@creatorsecrets]

Hahaha, I tried vlogging earlier this week... I'm still at the blushing part haha 🥲 Anyway, thanks Johannes!!

I need to know how do you clip your camera on backpack like this 3:41

[@creatorsecrets]

Check out the peak design capture clip! :) (no ad haha)

[@arbaz_ism]

Tom can i get your notes on casey's vlogs? 1:13

[@creatorsecrets]

Haha, Sorry Arbaz! But the real knowledge isn't in my notes, it's in dissecting the videos yourself 😄 Try to pick a few videos and note down every cut: what you see, what is happening and what kind of shot it is. You'll start to see some patterns emerge in no time 🙋🏻‍♂️

[@scpdatabase69420]

I think you should’ve done a portion focusing on how you put this video together as well. It would be meta like Casey but also emphasize how you’re telling a single narrative but doing it in multiple places with different angles and backgrounds

[@creatorsecrets]

Ahh, but see... that's where the beauty lays: Now I got the opportunity to make a next video 😎 Thanks for the feedback!

[@KostasLazanas]

That was a great video!!

[@LincolnLohan77]

I loved your breakdown and where you got with your skills. This videos was so well put together, engaging and insightful! Well done! May I ask how many hours did you put into it? From script to publish?

[@creatorsecrets]

Thanks so much! It really took (and still takes) a lot of work to incorporate all this. So really appreciate that you're seeing all the work I put in haha. And hmm, it's been a while but I think with research and everything, it will probably have been 5 full days. 2,5 of preproduction, 1 of filming and 1,5 of post :) Way to long 😂

[@LincolnLohan77]

@@creatorsecrets thank you man! This was a masterpiece, I hope it get more views and more people see it. 5 days of work was a lot, but the reason I asked was because I usually take 1 to 2 days maximum producing a video and It does not get close to this quality, I wanted to know how much more patience and hard work I would have to put. At the end, you have to put in more hours to do something unique. Thanks for the reply, I just watched the podcast about vlogging, I am definitely getting back to the vlogs! Thanks!

[@YemiOladapo]

Great video! Love it! Pleas what’s the podcast you referenced called ? The one where Casey he’s speaking with a couple other guys. Thanks

It’s funny you mentioned an alleyway shot. Unbeknownst to most, NYC literally has almost no alleys. That is very much a Chicago thing. Movies would make one believe otherwise.

[@creatorsecrets]

Really? That's interesting haha. Here in Ghent, Belgium we got a loooot of small alleys. It's more of a middle ages city plan, so a lot of weird angles between streets and buildings 😅 Still need to make my way to the states!

[@girtisholland]

@@creatorsecrets Yes, NYC planners did not want to waste any space at all. There is only a few alleyways in the entirely of NYC.
