I agree, great idea. Also, if you haven't seen it before, have a look at this interview I did last year: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nobel-interviews_2011.ogv It might come in handy if you ever need a quote from a Nobel laureate who's using Wikipedia.

During my last presentations to professors around Brazil, I've started to show these two short videos, one of professor Juliana Bastos in a TV news, and the other of professor Pablo Ortellado I made with my mobile: http://noticias.cancaonova.com/noticia.php?id=285520 http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ficheiro:Pablo_Ortellado_-_Wikipedia_na_Universidade.ogv I can always see the positive reactions on the other professors faces. I don't believe it needs to be too professional, just say with your heart. I remember the first time I publish one video of professor Juliana on my facebook, 5 professors came talk to me. I think that would be a good way to persuade other professors on all the important issues involved in building an free encyclopedia.
