Cinematography:
The first establishing shots of the video show high rise buildings, Wiz Khalifa himself and jewellery. the jewellery shot is an extreme close up and establishes his wealth and money he has. Within the video. The camera focuses a lot on him. its almost all about him and the lifestyle he has. They show him getting ready, eating and then driving off in his lovely sports car which also gives out emphasis of his wealth.
Mise-en-Scene:
Firstly, we see the opening shot which is of his city which is Pittsburgh. The song is all about his city and about black and yellow representing Pittsburgh steelers. The song title is represented by several props we see in the video such as shirts being waved, his hats he wears with a P for Pittsburgh on it and also his car is yellow. This really shows the viewer what he is trying to convey.
Editing:
The editing in the video is very simplistic. It cuts a lot from one shot to another and shows different time frames of what hes doing throughout the video. Fort example, first he wakes up and then he gets dressed, it then cuts to him putting his earrings on. There are also a few slow motion shots when he was walking out of his house which emphasises his 'swagger'.
Sound:
The sound is clear throughout the whole song. The beat flows correctly to his lyrics and the narrative has the same vibe as the actual song itself.
