Comment (by celloexpressions):

 Looking at the original icon set, I don't think most of these are similar
 to their original versions, and I think that's okay. Most important is
 making sure we keep the new icons looking cohesive with each other and
 WordPress more generally. Interestingly, the old icons aren't very
 cohesive.

 icon-previews.png)]]
 (since those aren't in the same order, a good test would be to have a few
 people guess what each icon means with the original and new ones)

 So I think the video icon could use some work, maybe make it more like the
 original one with the "film reel" concept? Or maybe un-rounding the
 corners is enough. Other than that, these are looking pretty solid. Other
 question is how they look in context; next step might be some mockups (or
 a patch) showing these alongside image thumbnails in the media modal.
