What I really like and will take from this video is the use of both singing and dancing and how the director have incorporated both of this styles within the music video and it fitting the story line, within my music video i will try to incorporate the dancing in my course work but what i do know what i have to do is making sure the dancing in the video must fit with the story line othervise it will just appear to look wrong.

Corine, you have 2 are studies here, as Vanessa has commented, these lack detail. I don't think you have updated this work and you need to add a third case study, relevant to your genre again. This second case study seems useful and themes, style and what you want to do with it is all useful detail. If you could just add to the lists of editing, camera and mise-en-scene - so analyse! find examples where the techniques have been used and explain why (so how this creates meaning). More on the costume, locations etc too.
