Can Redirect Rules and Personalized URLs work together?

I would like to create QR codes that link to a video hosted on Vimeo. But I would like Marketo to know when those QR codes are scanned and the recipient opens the video.

I was guessing that I could create a redirect rule that would look like this:
  1. go.mycompany.com/video  REDIRECTS TO  vimeo.com/myvideo
  2. and then personalize that redirect rule URL to something like: go.mycompany.com/JaneDoe
However, I don't see the "visits" to go.mycompany.com/video appear in Jane's lead activity. 

Ideas?

This sounds jerky and I don't mean it that way, but my idea? Don't use QR codes. They are confusing to most users and add unnecessary steps to pretty much any process 🙂
