Tips for Writing Third Person Limited

Once you're in the editing phase, you can play with your chapter order to control the pacing with ease.

Third person (he, she, they) is one of the standard points of view for writing fiction. In this video, I’ll explore the advantages and disadvantages of this perspective, along with some other concerns unique to this POV, including:
+ Limited vs. Omniscient
+ Narrative distance and tone
+ Multiple perspectives
+ Head-hopping
+ Third-person present tense

Which point of view should you choose for your story? First person, second person, third person limited, or third person omniscient? Each has its own strengths and weaknesses, and knowing them will help you choose! This video focuses on the basics to help you make that decision, but I’ll be making a video for each POV over the next few months, so keep an eye out!
Thanks again to @ManCarryingThing for helping with the skits!

so basically this video gets NERDY!!!
TIMESTAMPS:
0:11 - define psychic distance
1:30 - reading and comparing 2 types of third person (distant VS intimate)
4:42 - change your perspective
5:28 - understand the difference between external and internal narration (and how they overlap)
6:41 - the objectivity of POV lies on what the narrator tells/does not tell you
7:15 - but how do I actually write intimate third person?
8:34 - get into the body
9:07 - what is psychic plane?
11:21 - go back to the senses
12:02 - example of when a character is impacted by narrative detail (intimate limited) VS when they are not (distant limited)
RAPID FIRE TIPS
15:19 - watch your passive voice
15:52 - watch your -ing verbs
17:18 - create a language environment
18:19 - cut filters
