Location: Maddie H's house
Who: Maddie H, Niamh and George
Equipment: DSLR and Tri-Pod
Costume & Make-up: Black Dress with lace straps, Black dress with cut out dress, fishnets, Black heels, Red lipstick.
Navy blue  suit, white shirt, black tie, black work shoes.
Props: Two wine glasses, A pipit, Blackcurrant juice, A wine bottle, A beverage, A synthetic flower and red lipstick.
Purpose: Re-shoot.
Duration: 2 hours.

Within this shoot we aimed to make improvements upon the feedback that we received as this was the last chance we had to film. The main focus was to re-film the corridor scene and the shots where they shared drinks. However, the amount of shots we had to re-shoot increased because George was wearing a different suit on the day and we didn't want the colour of his suit to vary throughout the sequence.

Since Maddie B and Kelly couldn't film due to their different schedules. Myself and Maddie H shared the role of cinematography in this particular shoot depending on which one of us was needed in the frame. In addition to this I set up all the equipment and adjusted the exposure levels on the camera so that it was well suited to the high-key lighting.

Purpose: Shoot Victims death scene
Duration: 2 hours.

The past two times we filmed we had used  Kaan as our male victim. However, since he was unavailable at the time we had planned to film we had to quickly alternate and we chose to use George. Although, this meant that any of the previous shots we had, we were no longer able to use. It was the only possible solution we had at the time otherwise we would've had to reschedule shooting which would've restricted the amount of time we had to correct any errors.

We re-shot everything according to or new plan. However myself and Maddie were tasked with the role of cinematography in this shoot because Maddie B and Kelly's school schedule restricted them from filming with us at this time.
