The problem buyers already feel
A clip is not a film when the next cut breaks the lock.
Identity drift — face, costume, grade — kills boards before a crew ever sees them. Generative tools invent a new subject every time. Previz treats continuity as a lock you set, then carry.
Manifesto · A clip is not a filmWhat Continuity Lock holds
01
Cast
The same face and build across angles and scenes
02
Wardrobe
Costume cut, drape, and detail that follow the character
03
Look
Graded instruction set that travels with the shot
One productionExplore the six rooms
Rooms inherit the lock
A decision locked in one room is already true in the next. Rooms, not prompts. Controls carry continuity; prompting is refinement, not the workflow.

FAQ
Continuity Lock, clearly
What is Continuity Lock?
Continuity Lock holds cast, wardrobe, and look across shots in a Previz production so identity stays consistent from room to room.
Is Continuity Lock a prompt trick?
No. Previz is built as rooms, not prompts. Locks travel with the production; controls carry the craft.
How is this different from generating each frame separately?
Separate generations drift. Continuity Lock anchors the identity you signed off so coverage and motion inherit the same cast, wardrobe, and look.
Where does Continuity Lock sit in the workflow?
Across the six rooms — especially Keyframe sign-off into Storyboard, CineForge, and Director — so a lock made once is already true downstream.
Is there a research paper?
Yes. Read Continuity Lock on the research shelf for method detail. This page is the commercial overview. Read the research.
Does Previz replace a crew or a shoot?
No. Previz is professional visualization — script to shootable board — so the day on set is execution, not exploration.
