Video editor for Linux?
(lemmy.world)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You've probably got your answer already, but just wanting to confirm that Kdenlive can do all the things you listed.
Though the editor itself is very easy to use and obvious (if you previously have used premiere etc), you might find the UI for some of the individual effects a bit confusing. There's tool tips and sometimes help videos and stuff, but you might find yourself dragging a few sliders left and right to find out what they actually do :)
Note that generally speaking, Kdenlive doesn't currently support graphics-card-accelerated timeline preview very well, so if you're packing on the effects, you might not get real-time playback in the timeline without "preview rendering". If you ever used Premiere 20 years ago, it works the same as that.
From memory, Olive has the best "in-timeline" graphics card acceleration - but is otherwise at a much earlier stage of development.
As others have mentioned, some or all of these are also doable in Shotcut, Openshot, Olive.
Also, you might be interested in TJFree Tutorials on YouTube, which has a playlist of Kdenlive tutorials - for older versions, but it's mostly going to be the same. He also has tutorials in loads of other FOSS creative software. I found he tended to be "clear and efficient" and doesn't take 5 minutes to give you 1 minute's information.
Thank you, I'll keep that in mind if I need to do more.
Currently, I just have a 5 minute clip that needs cutting, stabilizing and some color correction, and Shotcut let me do that without tutorials or manuals.
Brilliant - I'll have to have a look at Shotcut again. It used to be quite "crashy", but it's been in solid continual development for a few years now.
