Priority Fixes from Your Report
- Center the subject and keep consistent headroom.

Why This Metric Matters
Facial control and category fit influence booking direction. High technical quality can still underperform if expression, angle, or category alignment are inconsistent.
How BModel Measures It
BModel combines face sub-scores, confidence quality, and category-fit matrix outputs to estimate market alignment.

Common Mistakes
- Neutral face in every frame with no emotional range.
