Warcraft Videoclip for Audiovisual Orchestral Black Metal Band

Long title huh?
Anyway, I'm in a band called Galvorn. We play orchestral black metal.
Our goal always was to be more than a band, and instead of making regular cds, we are planning on doing a lot of multimedia works (besides some cds).

So back to the business... I got the idea of making some "semi-official" promo videos. Let me explain:
With youtube and such a new level and type of user made content was developed.
The main idea is to take some concepts from homemade hobby youtube videos, and take them to semi-professional levels, but without losing it's unique home-made characteristics.
One example is this video I made. It's a cover I recorded, and it's just a personal thing (not from the band), but it's a glimpse of what those "semi-official videos" can become.
So I got the idea to make a semi-official video of a song using warcraft cinematics.
Our upcoming cd (featuring a 90 piece orchestra) will be a conceptual album, telling the story of the spanish conquest over Latin America. But as some of you tolkien-heads might know, Galvorn is a (black) metal discovered by the elves. So we are going to take the story with a little different approach for this project (a more tolkienish approach, cortesy of Warcraft)

So, as I said earlier, Galvorn is (or will be) more than a band. We want to make an audiovisual team of musicians, graphic designers, video crew... and I'm here looking for people to join the warcraft crew :)

The idea is to make a video for one song, we have not decided yet which song will be, so it could last from 4 to 7 minutes.
And if it ends up extremly well, we *might* consider doing a full lenght video for the whole cd (about an hour) and maybe even a playable map, but for now would be just for one song.

I was ready to do the whole video myself, but I re-discovered this page after a lot of time.
So I though... hell, why not... maybe some poeple will find the idea interesting and help out...
For me the ideal would be to be the producer, and get people to help me with this:

* Terrains (5 Scenarios MAX, could be down to 2 or 3)
* Models (2 or 3 units, but with a few different costumes)
* Animator (to have some extra unit animations would be awesome!)
* Photography director (camera, angles and stuff)
* JASS/Advanced Scripting (I help with most of the basic-mid scripting)
* Consultor (Or mentor :P Someone with a lot of experience in wc3 cinematics, for a serious and critical opinion)


So, anyone up for it?
