It is not difficult to do something that is already happening. By referring to encyclopedic videos I am talking about multimedia that can enrich existing content. I understand your point, it's a bit like what happened with the project of reading recorded Wikipedia articles that after years seem obsolete.
What I am referring to is all that multimedia material that is visual, that can be made into video to complement articles. The process you mention is complicated, but not impossible, in fact, there are many of us editors who have all those skills already implemented in the projects.
