Filmmaker jseders argues character continuity is more than a consistent face: shots can look identical yet still suffer production-continuity failures — clothing changing without explanation, props vanishing or duplicating, positions shifting, completed actions repeating.

These are production-continuity failures rather than image-quality ones.
