A lot of people use their creative ideas in order to create such a wonderful and unique content essays, stories or novels. There are other forms of writing where the writer uses their points of views so that they can express their views towards their readers in a well written way. It is surprisingly amazing how our ideas can lead us to a great ad better imagination that any writers can apply it into writing.

However, there are situations where a writer can use his or her points of view in a limited or omniscient way. Have you notice any scripts or any other contents where the writer focuses his or her attention to a lot of the characters in his scripts and then there are some where they only use a single character where they can focus their attention to? It may sound confusing but let me introduce you to the two types of points of views, the Limited and Omniscient POV.

We’ve already talked about the main points of view in the past – first, second and third person. Each one can bring their own advantages and disadvantages to your piece, often creating a very different narrative, depending on which one you choose to employ.

Aside from those three which, for the most part, are indicative of the speaker’s position relative to the events, you can add additional characteristics of scope that can help shape the piece in a different way. Simply put, you can have the narrative laid out with the speaker either reporting from a limited or an Omniscient Point of View.

Limited Point Of View

A limited point of view can be employed whether you’re writing from the first, second or third person. You can create this by writing the piece (whether it’s a story or an essay) as seen from the narrator’s eyes. That means any observation is kept taking into consideration the speaker’s limitations, whether physical or emotional (or anything else for that matter). It is where the writer only focuses his or her attention to one major or minor character.

Omniscient Point Of View

A writer uses his or her points of view to all of the characters in his or her scripts. Notice how a writer focuses his attention to all his characters in his passage and he knows everything about those characters. When writing from an omniscient point of view, the narrator can dip into the heads of the characters in the story. It allows for a more expansive treatment of all the players and events, although it can result in a muddled narrative, with misplaced ideas and concepts suddenly presented out of nowhere. You have to watch out for this common mistake, as even the best writing software isn’t programmed to catch faulty trains of thought. Typically, they are best used for third person stories, though some have employed them using other viewpoints (to mixed, sometimes disastrous, results).

If a writer is visible enough to write a particular scripts with all of his knowing and knows what’s his objective in writing, then he can use the Omniscient POV and can even catch his readers attention since knows how to handle his work well.
