Editing practice

As the "rave scene" is a vital part of my teaser, I wanted to use a video editing software program to practice editing and fast cutting.

My first shot is a manual out of focus shot, I feel these shots are great to use as they start the footage off with an enigmatic feel. I have made sure that the camera focus's on the glowsticks rather than the actresses.
My second shot is a pan of Niamh and Mel still out of focus. I have kept it out of focus because it sticks to the enigmatic feel. And it asks the question are they really friends? Or is Mel chasing Niamh?
My third shot is a zoom in shot of the wall, I feel this creates tension and the zoom allows a "bridge" to the next shot.
My fourth short is a nightshot of Niamh. I have used a night shot as it is eerie and mysterious
