SWA101: Narration and Point of View (ESB)
Manage episode 494296025 series 2912944
This week in "Star Wars Appreciation 101," Julia and Fern tackle The Empire Strikes Back from a certain point of view (sorry, we had to!). This episode covers narration and POV in literature and film, including how we identify a scene's point-of-view character or characters and what that can teach us. Other points of interest: What is narration, and how does it work in movies compared to literature? What is a work of fiction asking us to consider by taking certain points of view?
Read Fern's short story, "Fox Finds the Fairies" in Fruitslice Magazine!
