[@familycraftdad]

That was actually very VERY inspiring. I can tell you put quite a bit of thought into that. I kinda needed that... as I've been hitting a wall with my content lately... and perhaps this is why....

[@Mumbo]

Thank you very much! Everyone hits creative blocks occasionally, just keep working through!

[@gerbs4009]

Mumbo Vlogs I know where you filmed that ;D great video btw, i am now truely inspired 😊

[@aydentaylor2942]

FamilyCraft Dad same!

[@schwerzli5272]

FamilyCraft Dad ghj

[@tylerwhetstone527]

WOW, Mumbo. This was truly amazing both visually and story wise. Absolutely stunning. I never get tired of seeing these videos!

[@benedikt2ndchannel342]

And then KZbin says: “not suitable for advertisers“ Not a joke. Literally.

[@DarkDingle]

I just discovered this channel of yours, and after watching this video I can't stop watching more of your content, bravo!

[@Valor4540]

He also has a minecraft channel, Mumbo Jumbo :)

[@samboatshop3658]

Amazing!!! Great vid and great quality!!!!

[@duccgg]

This is amazing You really know how to connect with people Playing Minecraft is another aspect of your life but while film making you are a whole new guy While playing you might be a big spoon but when it comes to filmmaking you really connect to it That's why I like you Mumbo You have inspired a lot of guys out there I gave up on photography about 2 years ago after my camera broke but after I came across your channel I just thought to my self why just give up Now I still don't have a camera but I try to take the best shots that I could get from my Redmi Note 4 Thank you Mumbo

[@Mumbo]

I'm super pleased that you're getting back into it! Keep at it, you won't regret it! :)

[@duccgg]

Mumbo Vlogs 😃

[@Furree_68]

Thoughtful and a totally adequate analysis Mumbo. That's why I liked your mini documentary with Otter, it had a story as well as a super nice photo. As goes for the films you did with Creative North. I loved them.

[@byeguyswhathello]

Stunning.

[@jay_fox5342]

Only you can make a helpful video about filmmaking and attach something to it so it is emotioal... and this is why I love videos like that :) Thanks for doing projekts like this Mumbo

[@joshuanelson5212]

Mumbo, i think this is your best vlog video yet. A film/video without a set story and emotion doesn't leave the audience touched by what they have just watched. If someone is making a movie with all the fancy film gear and equipment, but they don't have a unique and solid story, no one will leave that video satisfied. You can blow someone away with just a simple camera, and a solid story filled with the right emotion and tone. That is why i like watching you mumbo, you are a great amazing film producer. You are one of the very first youtubers who got me stuck into more advanced film. Keep the good work up!

[@riverplasmahero2508]

Awesome video as always! Your videos continually blow me away. I feel like story is one of those things you start thinking about and keep expanding on over time. I'm going to have to start paying attention for this now. Can't wait to see what you do next! Thanks Mumbo!!! :D

[@YTc0mparn]

This video gave me goosebumps, I really love your way of filming and describing things! Me myself are very interested in film, it's very often that I watch a movie and instead of enjoying it like others I watch the camerawork and the post work like CC and the edits. I don't really know how to explain but I really like your look of films!

[@anshul19]

this is the side of Mumbo we have rarely seen. Beautiful video and really inspiring. Loved it.

[@reworkgaming1202]

Wow, you've seriously inspired me to take up a bit of photography mumbo. Now everywhere I go I look like a fool, crouching down and lying on my face to take a picture of a cool twig, and I love it. You rock!

[@Mumbo]

Do it! Some of the poses I get into are absolutely ridiculous! haha!

[@lathri5380]

Love these videos the quality is at the peak of perfection

[@steveandrews6635]

That opening was phenomenal, If I didn't know better I would think it was professionally done! Loving you progress man, super inspring.

[@jackmoroney3785]

It was made by Mumbo, by my standards, that _is_ professional.

[@davidreyngoudt3472]

Jack Moroney I was thinking the same thing

[@benedikt2ndchannel342]

Stunning. I LOVE your Vlogs. I rarely give videos a “like“, but this one deserves it.

[@Mumbo]

Thank you very much :)

[@kittumourya]

@@Mumbo XD

[@nielsberghs8725]

Great video man!❤ Keep up te good work👊

[@taylordavispomerleau]

Amazing! You are so wise. This made my day :) Can't wait to see another video!

[@nawafthegreat4666]

A different approach and guess what .....I'm loving it from the shots taken to the narrating everything was just mind-blowing more mumbo more .

[@CathuluWantsACat]

Best way to enjoy Mumbo's video-- Highest Quality && Max volume..... Awesome Work Mumbo!

[@Pocketabowl]

Getting better and better! And your film making is better than ever which is just AMAZING! I loved every second of this video! Can't wait to see more!

[@archiemilligan2176]

this is an amazing movie, i would say the photography is better than what i see in most movies these days

[@Mumbo]

Thank you :)

[@cyanarachy5359]

Mumbo awwww

[@zachwilcock6199]

I’m 15 and my dad has been giving very similar advice to that which you gave at the end, but he never wrapped it up in a nice little bow like you did. I’m kind of blown away that you’ve wrapped up some scattered thoughts that I’ve been thinking. It’s very helpful not just for filming, but also interacting with people every day. It’s always good to consider that people have their own life. And now you’ve gotten me thinking. Here’s another way to look at it. Talking to anybody is like talking to someone who’s an expert in their craft. If I’ve never fished before, then I don’t know anything about how an expert fisherman fishes. Everyone is an expert at their own life. And though everyone else doesn’t know much about it, it’s important to realize that just living day to day is kind of like rocket science. There’s a lot to know and the science is different for each person. I hope that’s easy enough to understand. I love the video. :)

[@melvinmakada4617]

Absolutely Brilliant 🔥 Speaks a lot about what people really want to do but never seem to do it and I love that you've shed some light onto it

[@Mumbo]

Thank you :)

[@slimeymeow7406]

Why are you literally the best at everything? Photography, redstone, videos, building (sorta), etc.

[@Mumbo]

Hahaha, thank you! I'm not quite sure I am the best but I give everything a go to the best of my ability. I agree with the "sorta" on the building! :)

[@aryan.l7894]

Mumbo I really like this new kind of style. Been here since 700k

[@freddyspaghetti1055]

I've been here since 4K!

[@archie6472]

I love this style of video, keep up the good work!!

[@Ahmed-ut2bx]

This is amazing I feel like I am living a new life it makes me fell fresh and new

[@morrisonben]

Eyyyy you finally posted it. Great as usual 👌🏼

[@mateomravunac9699]

This guy is epic.. I don't have words to describe my feelings about his videos. 🙂 Keep up good work 😉

[@leah3777]

Yeah, that is really cool

[@matiker]

I think this video is one of the best i've seen...

[@squarebodyseth5986]

Brilliant and amazing work!

[@nielsv2004]

Awsome vid

[@jasper1995]

My mind is blown with the first minute! And great job with the 2.000.000 subs! 🎉🎆✨

[@Dinsaur-wx7el]

Wow. Possibly best video on KZbin.

[@Mumbo]

Hmmm, I don't know.. But thank you! XD

[@Dinsaur-wx7el]

Mumbo Vlogs I’m certain it is.

[@fxdj4846]

I swear I though that an ad for a film was playing in the beginning.. This is actually amazing, it's beautifully shot, and the actual content is quite interesting, I wouldn't mind a sort of series on the aspects of film making.

[@Mumbo]

Hahaha, thank you! That's not a bad idea :)

[@alexanderliu723]

Double thumbs up! Not only does this video have good video quality, it also taught me something. Nice job, Mumbo!

[@Mumbo]

I'm glad! Thank you :)

[@martinferjancic]

This video shows why I love this channel. Keep it up❤️.

[@PrincessNobella]

when you do a redstone tutorial it is like telling the story or the redstone, this video had a similar feel and that works. keep trying new things and learning more, I just got my first DLSR camera and am trying to learn to use it, funny as I stared watching you trying to learn redstone and now I am inspired to learn more of photography as well, never stop learning is what I try to live by

[@Mumbo]

Great way of thinking!

[@jottumseijner7829]

Super amazing video man! Go on like this!!!

[@wilnil]

That thing with every individual person has a story is still quite mind blowing every time I think about it...

[@Mumbo]

Yeah, blows my mind too. For some reason it's something that I hardly pay attention to.

[@jacklynch7251]

I love this video as it is so complex but you explained it so well

[@Mumbo]

Thank you :)

[@kellydempster4712]

When inspiration meets creativity and a passion, infinite possibilities reveal themselves. With your passion and expertise mumbo, you connect your audiences with your stunning, creative, story-telling footage. Hats off to you!

[@antrikshminhas7195]

Quality is amazing

[@itsyaboi1502]

The last few weeks have been rough for a lot of youtubers and this video was really inspiring. Mumbo, I really do mean this, your incredibly influential to a lot of people who watch your videos, and can help them in so many ways. You always thank us, but maybe it’s time for us to thank you as well.

[@zssky]

Thanks Mumbo 👍

[@patrickspeer3350]

I've never really been into film making but I love your channel (and your other one!).

[@pancakesfilmproductions3926]

So, everything he advised, is something that the Star Wars team needs to see! Amazing video.

[@Mumbo]

Haha, thank you :)

[@Dreymasmith]

I have been thinking about this ever since I saw it. I think the way to put it is the difference between commentary and narrative. Your earlier films reflect your history as Minecraft's Mumbo, making videos and commentating. So naturally when you started with film it was much the same, hence "now I'm going to take some drone footage", etc. Great for one mode, not for another, and it takes a while to learn when to change form. You are rocketting along and producing some genuinely beautiful films that have a narrative flow. Keep at it.

[@murph_archer1129]

This was brilliant Mumbo. Such high quality. Truly beautiful!

[@marwannasser8961]

I Feel Like Mumbo is the dad of film makers *keep it up love ur shots * ❤

[@4za4s]

I’ve been watching a lot of how to KZbin videos but you mumbo put it the best way, you’ve captured a story within a tutorial which has made it not feel like a tutorial at all. This message is going to get to a lot more people this way and I thank you for putting the time and effort to not just make the video but but depth into.

[@soundwavehope]

Beautiful.

[@Jaemou]

You are incredibly self-aware and that is what gives your content that extra something that is so often missing from other channels.

[@suyashahuja6648]

Wow! That was awesome! :)

[@von380]

Absolutely brilliant. Everything you say is so deep, and has so much meaning. Keep up the good work Mumbo!!! And thank you for always doing your best to please us!!

[@r0sso_]

Mumbo, you sayd that really good! Im almost crying!

[@Mumbo]

Haha, thank you :)

[@Andrew-cu3kh]

Great video with a very good message! I didn't realize how much a story can help a video, I thought it was just point and shoot for cinematic stuff. The story helps SOOO much! This could actually be applied to other areas of life, too.

[@ItsCezGaming]

I love this sort of video, so meaningful 😊

[@broepictimes9958]

Awesome video mumbo! The quality just blew me away!

[@hishaam5429]

Beautiful

[@zaine_502]

Mumbo, that beginning statement will never cease to blow my mind, amazing work as well!

[@robert58]

Your videos make me always so happy! Its amazing!!

[@Mumbo]

Thanks!

[@robert58]

Mumbo Vlogs 😊😊😊😊

[@gideonbias]

That's what I love to capture. I've always had that in mind: The people's lives that they live, the stories that life is composed of, the mini-hero's journeys that grow a person to their best self. I'm a writer, and I want to write stories that matter. Thank you, Mumbo. You've created something special- no more than that. Sentimental, here.

[@legoslothman]

This kinda makes me want to start a filming channel or something because this is inspiring! I will try Oli And also I have watched every single video on both of your channels

[@Mumbo]

You should!

[@legoslothman]

Mumbo Vlogs I will try Oli And also, I have watched every video you have on both channels

[@Matt-ye2hg]

lol fanboying a little much?

[@legoslothman]

Matt yes

[@averyryalls5186]

This is amazing. I am at a loss for words.

[@lolkolf7789]

Just fantastic..

[@yokubari_]

sonder n. the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own

[@aidanjackson1791]

When I saw the beginning of the video I was about to hit "skip ad"! It looked that professional!! Loved it Mumbo!!

[@Mumbo]

Hahaha, thank you :)

[@anomatricwizard7015]

You're becoming a real inspiration for me! Keep up the good work man ;)

[@Mumbo]

That makes me super pleased! I'm glad you are enjoying them. Thank you :)

[@alextriantaf5266]

Amazing work..you are getting better by the minute!!

[@zachbear]

yay, mumbo vlogs

[@charlesdoeseverything9716]

I'm a filmmaker and I love trying to make picture-perfect shots as best as I can, but watching this video has really put emphasis on the story of the movie. I never quite realized that impressing your friends with shots does not mean they understand anything you're trying to tell them. Overall, this has given me hope to start again and rethink my films. Thanks Mumbo!

[@advanced_warplayer7081]

Wow youre video’s are so well made and edited, Good job!

[@Dexter26958]

You have so much skill in film making, it’s incredible! All of your vlogs are just straight up masterpieces on their own! I wish this channel had at least as much subscribers as your gaming channel because I think you can really go places with the skills you have! Please never stop following this passion of yours, you have serious potential to go big with this!

[@antrikshminhas7195]

Really inspiring video

[@italyball2166]

Beautiful! This is something that really often is forgotten!

[@swaroopnarayanan600]

This is the best vedio of 2k 18 so far

[@Mumbo]

Hahaha Woooo!

[@NoName-ig1dx]

Don't get down to conclusions so early. Mumbo can do even better and he will!

[@Danielsingerymusic]

Absolutely excellent. Really helping me with my book imagery

[@adrianwilliams7856]

Thia is an awesome video great work Mumbo-Jumbo

[@cakepro3473]

Stop Minecraft, hire a team, and become a movie director. This was beautiful. I am changed by the beautiful imagery and amazing "Story"

[@wietseanckaert]

Beautiful video man!

[@derekbarrantes9463]

I’m an aspiring storyteller myself, and there are just days when I find myself at a stop. Indeed, as you’ve said in this video, making a story is hard. Looking and taking inspiration from other people’s stories is indeed very helpful in crafting your own stories, and what I like to do is to take inspiration from some very interesting stories I’ve heard about others, and incorporate it into my own to create a story that would make even a fictional story feel real.

[@saman_deev]

Mumbo, just when I thought your vlogs couldn't get any better, you proved me wrong. Great Video!

[@jpgvlogz4572]

Wow.. amazing 📸

[@Prometeur]

Wow. A great video with an even greater message. Not to even mention the phenomenal sound design. Awesome work!

[@crazykeith6125]

That was very well done. It has helped me think more about what I want to do as a streamer and video maker. Mumbo you are an inspiration. Keep doing what you are doing and be as great as you are just by being yourself. Your great man. Thanks.

[@Mumbo]

Thank you for the kind words!

[@lovro_ribic]

Your are the best *PERIOD*

[@skrutten_]

Ever since I saw your second channel I instantly fell in love with your style of filmmaking. You have such an incredible passion.

[@BobCCLIV]

The footage was beautiful! Love the softness in the colors. I also kept thinking throughout how funny it was that your video on telling a story and how you struggle with it had such a great story!

[@Alfie-yz1lw]

Such an amazing video

[@eddiesocker1189]

I was an art major in school and this isn't only true when creating content for something like You Tube. The best art has story, and as such being able to convey this in any way is what really makes or breaks anything you can create. This way really well said and can help to improve everything we do as humans.

[@nightbeastev7556]

great seeing how ur camera skills and equipment have changed from your face reveal vid to broken cats to videos like this.... keep it up man!

[@Mumbo]

Hahah, thank you. It means a lot!

[@matthewreese1201]

2:52 MUMBO why are you stalking elderly couples!!!

[@Mumbo]

They looked adorable! Makes for a decent shot :D

[@marksercombe1447]

Your kinda new to this filmmaking thing at least on KZbin and yet you speak such wise words

[@Mumbo]

Hahaha, thank you :D

[@BruhIRLdan]

There's nothing that I love more than vlogs or videos like this that have so much effort put into them. This is an incredible video. Keep up the amazing work :)

[@BobtheBuilder0]

Wow, that quality!

[@jonaseriksen2709]

This.. wow

[@mandtcousins7121]

This is the greatest story of them all, well done, Mumbo

[@Wihnu99]

Like-dislike ratio tells everything, keep it up man!
