How He Turns 10 Year Old Games Into Millions of Views

Описание: A gaming YouTuber with 2.8 million subscribers breaks down the exact storytelling framework behind his biggest videos, built for creators and aspiring YouTubers who want to turn raw footage into something people can’t stop watching.

Martin walks through the whole process behind his channel, from the accidental origin of his now-iconic frog branding, to the “but, therefore” storytelling framework (borrowed from South Park’s writers) that turns 56 hours of footage into a single tight story.

We go behind the scenes of his actual scripting and editing workflow, break down why his most viewed video has a shockingly low click through rate and why that’s not a bad thing, and get into why he thinks chasing analytics is one of the biggest traps new creators fall into.

If you’re serious about the craft of making videos not just growing a channel this is one of the most detailed breakdowns i’ve done.
