Not bad for first time work. I noticed quite a bit of over exposing in the music video. I also noticed an inconsistency in coloring. You may want to practice your coloring correction and color grading. There were also lots of shakes and jiggles that might have been nicer if there were a bit more steady. Vocals were a bit too hot in the recording of the song and could have used a little EQing to balance the tones out a bit. I also noticed some inconsistency in vocal levels. Try adding a compressor to the vocal track to balance the levels throughout the song. Keep working on the singing and you will only get better. I sounded like the two of you were holding back a bit and it compromised the vocal quality. Keep at it though.
The short film was better. Again, working on the color grading and the dialogue. a compressor would help the audio balance in volume and an EQ could help brighten the sound and bring up the presence a bit. I like you use of lighting in the work out shots. There was a shot during the workout were the character was outside and his shirt was blown out. It would be good to try and keep things natural and try not to blow out white shirts too much. This may make the face a bit under exposed but it will improve the overall quality of the shot. also, the shots of the push ups would have been cool to rack focus to the characters face when it came into frame. The dialogue between the two characters at the beginning, I noticed a pretty easy to fix(next time) error. When switching between two camera angle with people, you should stay on the same side of the two characters when you switch.
proper setup for two camera angles on two characters.

This was what you did. Not the best angles of choice
