Lightbulb Project 1999 Trailer

Ever since I saw the art ToddFX did (HERE), I've been inspired. I'm obsessed with the idea of making a Project 1999 Trailer. It's been a while since the last time it's hit me this hard, but when it does, I have to just get it out of my system, otherwise I'll never get on with my life. (or actual work /sigh...)

I've been playing it over in my head and like always, I started with the background music. I took the original EverQuest intro music then re-sequenced things a little and used some nice instrument samples to really make it sound pretty good if I do say so myself. (I have absolutely no musical skills whatsoever) I think it sounds good, maybe someone that knows classical/soundtrack scoring could tell me if I'm right:

So far the trailer (as it stands in my head) includes the following shots (in order):
Four passage text intro as the camera pulls back through original EQ concept art (ripped from the Prima guide)
1. It was the most revered MMORPG of all time
2. A home for thousands of players
3. Yet the vision that made it great is all but gone today (too wordy)
4. We seek to revive that vision...
(I know it's super corny and needs some reworking. Help. Please.)
<tempo change>
Fly through of a foggy Kelethin
Low angle shot of the statue of Kaladim
A sunny day at Kerra Isle
Entrance to HighKeep (if ToddFX will let me mess with the scene he made (plzplzplz!))
<tempo change>
Project 1999 Logo against a blue sky
Pan down to West Freeport Gates
Close up of the WFP Guards
Fly through of the EC Tunnel with LOADS of people in it
<piano section>
"Relive the Classic EverQuest Experience!" "Visit us at Project1999.org"

What I need:
Four passage text intro help
More original EQ concept art (not kunark/velious)
Entrance to HighKeep Scene Files (pleasepleaseplease Mr. ToddFX!!)
Project 1999 Logo (if there is one, if not I'll make one hehehe)
IDEAS!!! Seriously. Need them.

I'd love official P99 approval on this whole trailer thing, but either way I'm way past stopping this rollercoaster now. Blame ToddFX. He started it. =P

Update 11.28.2010:
Intro section with text - 90% Complete (need better phrases)
Kelethin - 100% Complete
Kaladim - 100% Complete
Kerra Isle - 100% Complete
P99 Logo - 99% Complete (need approval)
Freeport - 60% Complete (need to animate camera, render and post)
EC Tunnel - 0% Complete (haven't started on it)
