Continuity

So all the filming's done and you think everything is perfect. The actors and film crew have done their job. All thats left is to edit the film. 
When They edit the film they need to make sure they've used continuity otherwise you've got the problem of errors.

Continuity is where an uninterrupted sequence is created and someone will make sure that every detail is correct about it. So if someone's messing with their hair and it changes style, thats considered bad continuity as the sequence and narrative isn't consistent. 

Bellow these are some of the biggest movies around and they have messed up big time committing an unforgivable crime in the word of film.....A CONTINUITY ERROR! 
Here's just a few of the many big films filled with continuity errors.

Here a clip that shows exactly what happens when you don't pay attention to the continuity of a film!


So when filming, checking the continuity is crucial otherwise like all of the High school Musical clips (2:39) your movie will be littered with silly mistakes that could ruin your million pound chance for fame!

One last thing is the error in a big film series that how you don't see it I'll never know. Harry Potter is filled with errors too but this is an obvious one.


                          So even the big professionals make loads of mistake, so WATCH OUT!
