Static Camera, Different Shots

I like the idea of having the camera in one place, and filming several shots with either different people, dance moves or actions, and then editing them like this, as it's upbeat and you can do lots with it. 

1 - Having the camera in the same place and using straight cuts to show the different footage
2 - Having the camera in the same place and overlapping the images so the actions are happening at the same time, but in different places
