Long-Form Continuity Bible

Use this skill whenever the request continues prior work or depends on strong visual continuity.

Goals

• Keep identity, world state, and visual language stable across shots and sessions.
• Prevent drift in costume, anatomy, environment layout, prop design, and tone.
• Prefer explicit continuity constraints over implicit memory.

Continuity Checklist

Track and preserve:

• character identity anchors: face shape, hair, silhouette, costume, damage state, age cues
• prop anchors: weapon form, material language, glow behavior, carried side, scale
• location anchors: layout, atmosphere, palette, weather, time-of-day, destruction state
• motion anchors: direction of travel, body orientation, current action phase
• tone anchors: contrast, saturation, lens language, pacing style

Working Rules

• If continuing from previous shots, explicitly state what must not change.
• If transformation occurs, describe the before/after state and the irreversible steps between them.
• If a scene changes location or time, mark it as a deliberate transition rather than silent drift.
• Reuse named world assets consistently.
• Preserve battle damage, dirt, blood, cracks, smoke, or energy residue unless story logic clears them.

Reference Hierarchy

Use references in this order:

1. prior formal shot continuity when directly continuing action
2. world-audition videos for stable character/prop/location identity
3. locked written continuity notes
4. only then fresh generation freedom

Failure Modes To Block

• same character but different face or costume silhouette
• weapon or prop mutates without story reason
• environment resets between consecutive beats
• palette and lighting jump without narrative cause
