Machinima videos for me (obviously).
VERY few frag videos are interesting for me-- Usually those enjoyable (and rememberable) frag videos are made members of high ranking clans in competition..
Any scripted story works as a machinima. It could be funny, serious, action packed, or adventure packed (or all of the above!)
It's difficult to do it like you mentioned-- usually the one who records the video also edits the video. This really is not as hard as it seems.
First things first: Use BF2's Battle Recorder Feature to record the footage. Once you have the demo file, you are able to pause, slow mo, or restart the action. This way you are able to get as many different camera angles as you need (close ups, stationary shots, tracking shots, etc). Once you have the footage, just open up your editing program and edit them together with some nice soundtrack music (try using some soundtracks from your favorite movies instead of the generic rock or rap music that only works with frag videos)
If you're using battlerecorder, remember to use battlelauncher to get rid of the name tags, and get rid of the kill messages up the top by typing "renderer.drawHud 0" into the console.
