The video tutorial explains the five essential parts of a story: characters, plot, setting, conflict, and theme. Characters are the subjects of the story, while the plot encompasses all events, including exposition, rising action, climax, and resolution. The setting describes the time and place of the story. Conflict represents the challenges faced by characters, and the theme conveys the story's message or moral. Common themes include lessons like 'you can't buy happiness.' The video concludes with a recap of these five story elements.
