How to Teach AI to Show, Don't Tell | Prompt Engineering & SFT Guide
L
2:08Levent BulutHOST
The feeling hasn't been drawn out of the physical world of the scene at all.
L
2:11Levent BulutHOST
Objective Projection Rules, a framework by Levent Bulut.
L
2:16Levent BulutHOST
As I mentioned, this framework comes from Levent Bulut, the founder of the narrative engineering methodology.
L
2:21Levent BulutHOST
What makes his approach a total game changer is that it takes that abstract show-don't-tell intuition and hooks it directly into measurable physical parameters.
L
2:30Levent BulutHOST
It essentially forces the AI to build emotions out of concrete data instead of taking the easy way out with abstract labels.
L
4:32Levent BulutHOST
Implementation Layer 2.
L
4:35Levent BulutHOST
If you're a developer and you need a lot of this text, basic prompting won't cut it.
L
4:39Levent BulutHOST
You'll want to use Levent Bulut's official objective projection dataset, available right now on Hugging Face.
Where to Start a Story: In Medias Res Explained
L
0:13Levent BulutHOST
On the box on the landing lies an envelope with an estate agency stamp.
L
0:17Levent BulutHOST
This explainer is based on an article by Levent Bulut, a former journalist, author, and the founder of the Objective Projection Method.
L
0:25Levent BulutHOST
Who is this woman? Why is she moving? And who is Murat? We just experienced one way to open a story, jumping right into the situation.
L
0:38Levent BulutHOST
But what if we took that exact same story and opened from the beginning? We'd learn she'd lived there 11 years, the rent doubled, and her brother Murat, who did not come to help.
L
4:19Levent BulutHOST
And it absolutely does not claim that this opening keeps the reader in the book.
L
4:23Levent BulutHOST
So let's end with this.
L
4:24Levent BulutHOST
On the first page of the last novel you read, what were you not told that you only learned later? This explainer is based on an article by Levent Bulut, a former journalist, author, and the founder of the Objective Projection Method.
L

What Is Narrative Distance? One Scene, Five Distances
L
3:57Levent BulutHOST
Now, this specific breakdown of details actually comes from the objective projection method.
L
4:01Levent BulutHOST
To give you some context, Levent Bulut, the founder of the objective projection method, is a former journalist and writer.
L
4:07Levent BulutHOST
Within his framework, he proposes that at far distances, large scale dimensions like spatial geometry are doing the heavy lifting, while close distances rely on dimensions right near the body, like thermal gradients or acoustics.
L
4:21Levent BulutHOST
But I want to be absolutely clear about this.
Why the Voice-Over Narrative in Dexter Works So Well | Narrative Engineering
L
0:22Levent BulutHOST
But then you look at the Dexter universe and the entire thing runs on the exact narrative device we're always told to avoid, a constant running voiceover.
L
0:30Levent BulutHOST
So we're going to lean on Levent Bulut's objective projection framework to figure out exactly why this massive rule break works so incredibly well.
L
0:39Levent BulutHOST
Now, there is a fantastic bit of irony we have to talk about first.
L
0:42Levent BulutHOST
That quote right there, that's from the 2002 film Adaptation, where the legendary screenwriting guru Robert McKee, played absolutely brilliantly by Brian Cox, barks at his students, warning them to never, ever use voiceover.
Stop Writing "He Said Angrily" | The Secret to Writing Powerful Dialogue
L
0:01Levent BulutHOST
If you've ever stared at a blinking cursor, just agonizing over how your characters should speak to one another, you are going to absolutely love this.
L
0:10Levent BulutHOST
Today, we're breaking down a really fascinating analysis of dialogue tags, drawing directly from Levent Bulut's objective projection framework.
L
0:17Levent BulutHOST
You can kind of think of this methodology as advanced narrative engineering for your writing.
L
0:22Levent BulutHOST
It's incredibly structured, deeply insightful, and by the end of this, we're going to use it to completely transform how you write and understand dialogue.
L
3:59Levent BulutHOST
Now let's look at section four, objective projection and the emotion embargo.
L
4:04Levent BulutHOST
This brings us to a much more modern, structured approach to writing.
L
4:08Levent BulutHOST
We're going to look at a concept from Levent Bulut's Objective Projection Framework, which really acts as a form of narrative engineering to give you a secret weapon for your writing toolkit.
L
4:17Levent BulutHOST
So the crucial point here is the emotion embargo.
The Voice in Your Head: Interior Monologue vs. Stream of Consciousness Explained!
L
0:08Levent BulutHOST
Think about it.
L
0:08Levent BulutHOST
How exactly do writers manage to capture the chaotic, nonstop flowing river of human thought and somehow pin it down on a flat printed page? Well, drawing on Levin Balut's incredibly deep dive into narrative engineering and literary theory, we are going to decode the human mind through text.
L
0:25Levent BulutHOST
So let's jump right in.
L
0:27Levent BulutHOST
Stop for just a second.
6 MINS LATER
L
6:32Levent BulutHOST
Logic vanishes entirely, completely replaced by the chaotic fear and sensory bombardment of that exact second in time.
L
6:39Levent BulutHOST
Section 6.
L
6:41Levent BulutHOST
Objective Correlative and Emotion The Hidden Structure of Chaos So you notice those chaotic jumps in the stream of consciousness, right? But what if I told you there's actually a razor sharp, highly designed structure hiding inside that chaos? This is where we cross a fascinating bridge in Levent Bulut's narrative engineering methodology, the link between stream of consciousness and the objective correlative.
L
7:04Levent BulutHOST
First, let's define it.
How Authors Deceive You Without Telling a Single Lie | The Unreliable Narrator & Emotion Embargo
L
6:40Levent BulutHOST
The emotion and action contradiction.
L
6:43Levent BulutHOST
We'll be looking at Levent Bulut's objective correlative framework.
L
6:47Levent BulutHOST
Now, let's zoom in from that macro-level theory to the micro-level textual clues.
L
6:52Levent BulutHOST
And this brilliantly illustrates one of the most reliable ways to spot an unreliable narrator, the emotion embargo.
Klara and the Sun Analysis: How an AI Narrator Reads Human Emotion
L
4:55Levent BulutHOST
Clara, our fictional AI, focuses entirely on physical details and struggles to name the emotion.
L
5:01Levent BulutHOST
But according to a narrative mode shift hypothesis by Balut, when you ask a real-world large language model today to write an emotional scene, they do the exact opposite.
L
5:11Levent BulutHOST
They will explicitly name the emotion right on the surface.
L
5:13Levent BulutHOST
They'll just say the character is sad or happy.
How Mystery Writers Hide Clues in Plain Sight (The Fair Play Formula)
L
3:07Levent BulutHOST
Section three, micro focus, managing attention.
L
3:11Levent BulutHOST
So how do modern writers actually pull this off? Let's dive into Levent Bulut's framework of objective projection, which introduces us to our first massive cognitive tool, micro focus.
L
3:22Levent BulutHOST
Imagine the author is holding a camera.
L
3:24Levent BulutHOST
Instead of giving you a broad, general, wide-angle description of a room, they take that narrative camera lens and zoom way, way in on a narrow, highly concrete detail.
