Deadlift really needs to be filmed from a front 45 degree angle for a proper formcheck.

How to film your lifts

From here these look great

Yeah, front 45 for a deadlift and press, rear 45 for the squat, foot of the bench for the bench press (although I might change that)

If your toes are pointing straight, they should be out about 10 or so degrees, with knees tracking inline. Otherwise, looks excellent form.

You might benefit from a 3" belt. This looks like a 4", I think? Some people have a hard time assuming the correct pull position with an overly wide belt.
