Continuity Errors ..

When we're looking at our filming for our OTS, we have realised that there are a few continuity errors. There is a scene when the femme fatale is on the floor after she has just commited the murder. Then we see the clumsy detective giving her a small bottle of brandy. As the femme fatale takes the bottle and starts to take a sip, in the background it is clear to see that there is a person with dogs in the background. This is a continuity error as we have not continued to set the atmosphere very well because there is someone who is obviously from the modern times in the background. Even though there isn't much of them in the background, it still ruins the atmosphere.

Second error is that we haven't used a hip flask. Instead we have used a small bottle. This is a continuity error because we haven't used suitable props and therefore we have ruined the shot by not using suitable props.
