I think it's a great idea. Nothing like hearing from passionate guys to raise passion on others. Making videos would definitely be a way to go.
One thing I think is missing is a way, a channel, to reach common people, simple users, not just people working with Fedora Project. I find Read Hat Magazine a great idea, and such a light approach to market and be in touch with simple end users. Posting such videos there from time to time would certainly make lists like this bigger =)
2008/6/25 Ricky Zhou <ricky@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:At FUDCon, one of the things that I loved was hearing peoples' stories
of how they got involved with Fedora. Could it be a good marketing
campaign (aiming to attract new contributors) to collect and publish
these somewhere? Maybe this could somehow be related to Mairin's "I am
Fedora" videos as well.
By the way, does the marketing team usually work on specific campaigns
(with specific goals and targets)? Would this be a good way to organize
marketing work better?
What do you think?

Here's the thread I found on the mailing list:

And I did a quick search on the wiki and found this:

Hope these things help.
