Drupal 7 Crowdsourced Release Video

Drupal 7 has cost enormous blood, sweat and tears. Now's the time for celebrating. And hey, there are the release partys. To combine this with marketing, there is something else we could do. The style of this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q48gzc-sl_8 struck me.

How about the following: Everybody records a video of himself or/and his pals or an even bigger group. One part consists of what Drupal 7 means to him personally. In the second part, we count down from 60 to 0, using a watch to synchronize the speed. This does not have to be all the way, ten numbers somewhere between 60 and 0 are enough. The final picture is a big "Drupal 7 is released".

What can I provide: helping market the campaign, talk to people to tweet about it, write a blogpost on the planet, get more people to write blogposts.

What I cannot provide: Video editing. Somebody proficient in video editing needs to step up. This person is doing the lions share of the work, for sure. But wouldn't that be cool and emotional...

Working title: "Seven is seconds away"
