Prop & Wardrobe Sheet (stage 4)
Why
A prop that recurs is an identity, like a face. A prop that carries text is a place where the model will write scribbles unless told the exact words. A prop that is a story clue (the brooch in an Odyssey, the hand-painted "SANTIAGO 30") must look identical every time or the clue is broken. All three earn a sheet, locked once, referenced everywhere.
Which props need a sheet — decision
| Prop | Sheet? | Reasoning |
|---|---|---|
| appears in ≥2 blocks (match ball) | yes | recurrence = identity |
| carries text/number/logo (kit, notebook) | yes + text pass | text is where slop shows first |
| held in close-up (notebook, trophy) | yes | fills the frame; must be real |
| story clue / distinctive item (a scarf crest, a brooch) | yes | continuity-critical by definition |
| era marker (old ball, homemade trophy) | yes | props sell the era fastest |
| set dressing (lamps, plants) | no — lives in the plate | nobody tracks it |
| generic crowd items (flags, scarves en masse) | no — text only | no individual identity |
Rule of thumb from the pipeline author: if you predict the next generation will show this object and a viewer would notice it changed, attach its image. If you predict it won't be in frame, don't.
