OpenShot
OpenShot Video Editor is a non-linear video editor for Linux,
built with Python,
GTK, and the MLT Framework. The developers' goal is
to create an easy-to-use, powerful, non-linear video editor, with a
focus on "User Interface", "Work flow", and "Stability".
OpenShot can easily combine multiple video clips, audio
clips, and
images into a single project, and then export the video into many
common video formats.
It is a versatile application used to create photo
slide shows, edit home videos, create television commercials, on-line
films, and much more. The software is particularly strong in the areas
of editing and compositing, and has been designed as a
practical tool for working with high-definition video including HDV and
AVCHD.
Create videos for YouTube, Flickr, Vimeo, Metacafe, iPod,
Xbox, and many more common formats.
