  All productions except maybe student films and low budget indies have a Script Supervisor who's literal job is continuity. Tier 1 rate is $40/hour here plus everytime they add an additional camera they get an additional few bucks an hour.
  Production designer is almost never on set during filming but I would say that Art Directors and Set Dressers are doing most of the continuity supervision (grunt work) during prep.
  But yes it has absolutely nothing to do with writing.

  I think this is true I also just think this has become an obnoxious thing to talk about cause edgelord reviews like Mauler focus solely on it to argue it's an objective criteria and more important than anything else, while simultaneously often misunderstanding events that make continuity correct. 
  But yeah, I do find myself really frustrates by continuity lapses. Specifically if the show references past events to build to other stuff. >

  Continuity in film is in the hands of directors, production designers, AD’s.  Some filmmakers even have a specific continuity specialist to make sure scenes and shots stay consistent.
