If this is actually important to you, there are plenty of ways you could help, not least by funding the effort. Capable videographers are not cheap, and if you think we can get away with having amateurs, try watching a 45-minute talk recorded by an amateur, or better still, try coordinating the efforts of at least three people per talk, as you'll need massive redundancy. When professionals volunteer their time, they still have expenses like travel, storage media, etc., and you can help defray those. What you really, really need to stop doing is proposing that others do an enormous amount of work for your benefit without offering to help. You have two choices here that would be constructive: offer to help (much better) or keep quiet (at least not whiny).
