Huh

The next I'm up to talking about POV in visual media, here's an example of second person (the camera is the "you" in the narrative, not the "I").

Hee! If that wasn't the video you linked, I was going to mention it to you. <3

Also, my other theory about that video is that Adam is playing both sides of the relationship, which REALLY gets deep into meta and finding your identity and the pressures of fame... But I won't get into it right now.

Also, dammit, I don't have any Adam icons on this account.

There are a lot of interesting things going on in that video. I like the very spare use of color as well as the pov aspects.
