Story Vids are vids that have an obvious narrative. It was a vid category in the Spring 2010 Merlin Slash Awards.

The Creative Junkyard Awards describe the category Storyvid as a "creative piece that does not fall into the trailer or music video categories but rather somewhere in between, using dialogue, text and/or multiple music tracks to tell a unique story or give an in-depth recap."
