Stripboard — The Long Way Down

Every element on this board
points at a line in the script.

Stripboard reads a screenplay and returns the paperwork a first AD would otherwise build by hand: a shooting-order board, a continuity report, and a breakdown where nothing is listed unless a verbatim quote backs it.

Stripboard

Grouped by location and lighting setup, not script order. Strip colour follows the physical board: white INT/DAY, yellow EXT/DAY, blue INT/NIGHT, green EXT/NIGHT.

Continuity

Found by reading the whole script at once, then a second pass that only looks for things used before the beat that introduces them. Each conflict has to be provable from two quotes or it is not reported.

HIGHPROPERTY_MISMATCHsc 2, 12

The Mustang is described as a '67 Mustang in Scene 2 but as a '68 Mustang in Scene 12.

The '67 MUSTANG idles under a dead streetlight, wipers going.
The '68 MUSTANG is gone.

HIGHTIME_OF_DAY_CONTRADICTIONsc 7

Scene 7 slugline specifies DAY, but the action text states it is past midnight.

INT. MOTEL CORRIDOR - DAY
It is past midnight and the building is dead quiet.

HIGHPROP_USED_BEFORE_ESTABLISHEDsc 3, 11

The brass key is shown in Rena's possession in Scene 3 before Delacroix gives it to her for the first time in Scene 11.

On the passenger seat: a BRASS KEY on a loop of green string.
First time you've held it. Locker twelve. Don't lose it.

HIGHWARDROBE_CONTINUITYsc 5, 6

Rena is wearing a leather jacket in Scene 5 but is wearing a denim jacket in Scene 6 despite Scene 6 being continuous.

Still in the LEATHER JACKET, Rena unlocks the metal FOOTLOCKER at the end of the bed with the BRASS KEY.
Rena sits on the bed's edge in the DENIM JACKET, passport open.
