Here are some ideas.

Our project is the best organizing tool that exists in this universe.

We should win because org-mode is transformative, innovative, and it is
supported and developed by an active and friendly community.

I agree that an svg of the unicorn is good.

Perhaps one could collect nice photos of each of the major contributors
who agree to be part of the video. These photos could be shown
sequentially (with appropriate transitions between photos) in the video
while the sound track would describe who is in each photo. If adding
sound is too much trouble, one could describe each photo with text,
maybe even org-mode style text.

It shouldn't be too hard to make such a video. I bet ffmpeg would work
to make a nice ogg video that could be posted on the org-mode website.
I'm sure it would be easy to put it on YouTube also.
