The Challenge of Multi-Shot Continuity
One of the biggest roadblocks in AI filmmaking is character drift: your protagonist's face, clothing, or age changes drastically from shot to shot.
The Anchor Tag Technique
Rather than describing your character differently in every scene prompt, define a structured Character Bible once and reference unique anchor continuity tags (e.g., #DrJaneLabCoat).
- Exact Age & Facial Features: Late 30s woman, sharp jawline, wireframe spectacles
- Wardrobe Materials: Tailored charcoal wool blazer with rolled cuffs
- Lighting Harmony: Consistent key and fill light temperatures across scenes
