I agree with you Andrew. We'll show the users that Fedora is the right distro by showing them what we have IN Fedora, by featuring the unique features that fedora created. What makes us feel proud as Fedora users. What sets us DISTINCTLY apart.

About "promotional oriented" and "behind fedora", our objective should be, let's say we make a video of 2min, we'll have to show case the best of Fedora that after watching, the viewers would feel the true Spirit of Fedora and should really want to try their hands on one.

I am so wanting to make this happen.

I will most likely do that once i get a formal proposal drawn up but i
want to get opinions from the community first and see where this would
be steered toward. In other words weather it would be a promotional
oriented video or a behind the fedora kind of video.
