Exact text comparison in input order. It does not inspect footage or decide whether a change is a production error; capitalization and wording differences count as changes.

    How to use Film Continuity Register

    1. Explore the worked example. Log a subject’s state by scene and shot, mark deliberate changes and find unexpected state transitions.
    2. Replace the shot observations with your own entries. Set compare within.
    3. Choose “Audit continuity changes”. Review continuity comparison, then compare the visual overview with the detailed tables.
    4. Capture alternative scenarios, download a reusable project and export the selected table or a report when you are ready.

    Know what you are comparing

    Can it detect a visual continuity mistake from footage?

    No. It compares exact text states in your shot log. Consistent scene and subject labels are important; intentionally changed states should be marked accordingly.

    Files, privacy & saving
