The video will contain a range of camera movements to create a dynamic look most often tracks, cranes
and whip pans.
The video will use mostly close ups for the lip synch , mid/long shots for performance and extreme close
ups for cutaways.
The video may often use high angles to create a vulnerable or sexy look, or low angles to create a
dominant or powerful look.
There'll be a wide range of different shot types/angles in each location to allow for dynamic and non-
repetitive editing.

The editing will cut to the beat, and will be montage editing.
Quite often a slow motion effect is used to create a sexy or slick feel.
