Continuity editing is used to show a smooth flow of time, for example if you was filming someone walking from one place from another you would want each shot to follow seamlessly on from the last or else it would confuse the audience and ruin the magic making it seem obviously edited. When watching a film everyone obviously knows that it has been edited but it is the editors job to make it look as invisible as possible so that people don’t focus on it and pay attention to the actual storyline. It is extremely easy to make a lazy error such as someone wearing a different item of clothing randomly, props switching hands in different shots and so on.
