Plot Blueprint Alicia Rasley

We've talked about character viewpoint in written fiction. That's pretty fundamental, because fiction is created out of words-- words of description and thought and feeling, and it's usually a character doing the describing, etc. Now let's examine how POV works in a very visual medium.

We're talking about the interactional kind-- the conflict that changes relationships in your story.

Here we discuss "the most important nod in film". Oh, and "the greatest singalong in film." Same scene!
This is the La Marseillaise scene from Casablanca, where:
Rick defies the Nazis
Laszlo risks his life to sing a song
Ilsa remembers why she loves her husbands
The Nazis back down (just for once), then double down
Captain Renault says a funny.

Point of view(also called "viewpoint") is the vehicle that drives the audience through the story. In most modern fiction, the POV is usually a character, either first-person (I) or third person (he/she/they/it). This is the person who narrates the story-- we see the scene through the POV character's eyes, hear through the ears, and so on.

There's also a common variation, the "omniscient narrator" who isn't a character in the story, but more an authorlike personage who knows all.
Confused? Well, listen in as we discuss the basics of POV, that essential writing element that brings the story to life for your audience.
