1. The first is a close up of the actor as she sings a verse. This close up is shown for about 2 seconds in the video and is used to see the detail on the actors face. This way we, the viewer, can see the actors mouth as she sings giving greater realism to the video. Also it allows us to see her expression which dipict that of a hip hop artist. 
2. This is a profile shot used during one actors verse. This shows the viewer what the action looks like from another angle and breaks the tension that has been building from the actor staring directly into the camera. It also gives a sort of 'behind the scenes' feel to the video as its not completely emersing the viewer in the actors movements. 
This shot goes from the feet up to the next photo of the actors face.
3. We used this tilt to introduce the first actor from foot to head. This way she is easily recognisable no matter what part we show. It also showcases her hip hop clothing and stance - wide spread - in charge.
4. This is the still before the zoom, and the photo after is a still after the zoom. This zoom happens as all the actors sing 'BOBBY!' and introduces the people standing in the back. Creating a unity between them. It also makes it more interesting, while keeping in the beat.
5 . This is a shot filmed handheld and at a lower angle than the rest. This allowed the actor to rap down to camera slightly and move around more while being included in the shot. This made it look more interesting and made the actor look bigger and more powerfull which is a common convention in hip hop music videos. I think this worked really well.
