I don't have any experience on videos, just watching :). 

This is just my very personal opinion.

I like very much the Nokia video because it shows something pretty
similar to GNOME shell but on the mobile area. It's a presentation of a
new interface (and a new device) and it give you an idea about how you
must interact with the new interface.

It's a very well done video. It's professional. I love the music. I
don't know if we have the resources for producing such as good qualitity
video, though I'm sure we have talented people :). I think this is a
sort-of teaser video. People got shocked by this video. After that,
people want to know more and they did a presentation video

And after that, they did several 30 seconds mini-tutorial videos:

and more like that

I think they did a very good marketing job. We can take some ideas about
how to plan GNOME 3 marketing.
