The split shows the exact change the viewer wants, soft on the left, defined on the right. The word ACTUALLY quietly says everything else you tried was wrong. Proof of the destination plus a hint of a better method is a strong pair.

Use a split like this when you own a genuinely dramatic before and after. Make the two states instantly different at a glance and label them with plain words. If your change is subtle, the format works against you.
