If the resume isn't enough for you to get them in for an interview, then at least you weren't biased by what you saw in the video. Also, just because someone is impressive visually in an interview or a video doesn't equate to success in the job position. People may be great in their interviews, but their on-the-job performance may be lacking. I've seen this happen.
