Yes...
That or having all of the lines at the same distance from the camera.
What I mean is something like when you take a picture 'grabbing' a person at the
distance between your fingers...
So the lines would look like if they were next to the figures.
The text (if you're going to make the text using pov as well) should be probably
pointing to the camera as well, no matter where it is located.
Just an idea...
