It sounds a bit like the idea of the M.I.C.E. quotient.
M.ilieu- The setting
I.dea- the what if story
C.haracter- The character based story
E.vent- The event is the most important thing story
Which one of them it is is based on which of the four gets the most time. If you don't have a really detailed setting for example because you are showing a character running round then it's a character driven story, if you concentrate mostly on an event that occurs then it's an event story and etc.
