Continuity
Each department keeps its continuity against the script: costume changes, hair styles, makeup looks and props, each tied to the scenes and characters it belongs to.
How it works
- Start from a scene Add a change, style or look to a character in the scene, numbered for that character.
- Build the kit Add the items a change is made of, or the pieces in a style or look, from the inventory.
- Photograph it Photos go on the change, style or look, or on your department’s photos of the scene.
- Note it Each change, style and look has a note that travels with it, and each department keeps its own note on every scene.
- Wrap it Mark it done when you’ve finished with it, and it reads as done everywhere it’s listed.
