I probably wouldn't do 30 seconds each, but I still might do 3 of the 10-second ones I had in mind. If I can talk anyone else into it that is. :)
Also, just from a personal standpoint I certainly don't feel 30 seconds of vid compares to 100 words of fic or 2 icons at all. Words can be completed quickly and 10 seconds of vid requires ripping/clipping/editing & merging music - it combines graphics and audio and is much harder from a technical standpoint, IMO I suppose the argument could be made that someone could use longer clips and fill 10 seconds relatively easily, but someone can ramble on and type up 100 words in just a few short minutes, too.
((and sorry for being one of *those* pesky participants - I just have very strong feelings about vidding and it seems to be undervalued a lot when compared with fic and graphics - LOL -- I'm good with whatever you decide))

Any chance of reconsidering the requirement?
This is actually the sort of thing I had in mind to do:
