First video
Better lighting on the face. There are places her face is completely dark. Since this was mainly happening outdoors, there are reflectors to use the sun's light.
Minimize the camera pointing at the back of her head. Keep it pointed at her face.
Hazel is green, yet you made her eyes blue.
The piano playing was completely unneeded
The subject goes in and out of lip syncing in the same scenes. Bad lipsyncing happens in many "profesional" videos, but you want to minimize it.
Second video:
The guitarist on our right should have moved to her left for two reasons. One is you cropped him out in parts and two, you would have save his shin from the thrown mic stand (the viewer can watch him keep trying to get out of the way). The guitarist on our left should never have been moved to the right in one scene.
Poor mic stand. It was thrown too many times. Once was enough (towards the end).
She was covering her face with the mic too much.
Other than that, you would have needed more money to make it better (better lighting, clearer camera). I doubt you have the $20,000-$50,000 (American) worth of equipment to get that good of a quality (that's what producers are for, so don't worry about that). Throw this one in your portfolio. It's actually pretty good.
3rd video:
Ah more lighting problems, again it takes a lot of lighting to make a night scene work well. Buffy the Vampire Slayer used like a dozen spot lights at a time for their night scenes and even then scenes turned out too dark. That's what producers are for.
It was boring through the first third of this video. The song talks of another girl, maybe the other girl should have been shown. The final half was much better and matched the fast pace of the song.
I noticed you like the vanishing people act. At least it's better than the Matrix ( the movie) effect that every director wants to use in every...single...film...they...make.
edit some effect's from
windows movie maker.
or
adobe movie maker.
or
video edit magic.
or
nero video edit.
