drafting and planning - Headphone scene

One of the key clips throughout my film trailer will be a scene in which the headphones of one of the victims falls to the floor in slow motion covered in blood, almost hinting at the fact that one of the people have been killed. here are some of the drafts.

This draft was good but as I felt the clip was too dark and required more lighting, I reedited the clip placing more lighting on the headphones.

This clip felt a lot better and once this clip has slow motion editing attached with dramatic music in the background, then the clip will be very effective. I also created another video which shows the headphones covered in fake blood dropping from a higher level. I intend to combine these 2 clips together in slow motion to create a suspenseful effect.
