• Many low angle shots to emphasise
the different levels of height at which
the props and dancers are at
• Began with an establishing shot
• Master shot of Nick in the elevator lip
syncing
• Panning upwards to show the
increasing of levels
• Wide shots to capture the levels of
the dancers and the big fans in the
background
• Close ups particularly as the song
reaches its climax, this is to build
pace by capturing a lot of movement
within the frame

• Location = a construction
building where they build the
framework and levels of
buildings
• the three fans at different
levels to show perspective and
of course different levels again
• Half naked women to show
that the genre of the music
video is Pop/R&B
• He is in an escalator for the
master shots to show that he
is quite literally going up levels
4. E D I T I N G
• Fast pace cuts
• Cross dissolving to soften the
transitions
• Split Screen above one another to show
levels within the editing
• VFX Light beams that pan upwards
across the screen to portray escalation
and how all of his energy is focused on
getting to the top
• There are places with layered footage,
Just like how you need to start form the
bottom and layer the foundations in
order to produce another level and get
closer to the finished product at the top
• Only the Soundtrack is present
