Yes excellent idea. For everyone who is interested in the concept of wiki based collaboratively built video add your name on meta https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Video#Interest
Still a fair bit of technical work to do. We want to create a work flow were the text script and instructions for when images appear within a video all exists within Wikimedia markup on Wikipedia. Hopefully that work flow will be ready in a few months (maybe by Wikimania...) We also want to get built a tool for commons that can trim and cut video similar to how we have a tool that can crop images.
