Chest Up!
Where's your chest on setup and once the barbell leaves the floor? In either lift, should be big/open and forward facing - not facing the floor or closed. This is achieved by keeping the back tight and actively engaged (shoulders back, lats active, lumbar curve preserved).

The world's greatest lifts?
Both realtime and slow-motion footage of Naim Suleymanoglu's snatch/clean & jerk attempts in the 1988 Olympics. For all curious about proper technique, it doesn't get any better than this.
