many questions in one :-)

for video editing, one need:

* a non linear video editor (AKA Adobe Premiere, Magix and many others
in Windows).

We have a lot in Linux, none working really well.

-The older is Kino, outdated and I think no more in openSUSE stock,
but bery good for making effects and transitions. I several times used
it only for this purpose. It works only on dv files

-the one I would like to see working is kdenlive. was promising, but
now is add features in place of fixing bugs. It's better than it was
but still I got crazy with him last day :-((

-openshot is nice for simple editing (may be it's it the blender
related one because it asks for blender at some moments) seems very
stable and usable, but lack too many features

-Lives : I never understood how it works, seems for artists more than
video reporters

-cinelerra, very ancient, but was aimed to professional market and
asket for a cluster of 100 computer the first time I met him (was
named, I think, Broadcast2000 - you see the date). Very special
interface. Seems well fitted for some works. However my old dualcore
was still not enough for him, and in case it lack memory it just
quit... I have to try it again with my new i5, but the learning curve
is high.

* a converter to make the video clip usable with youtube, dvd...
mobile phones..ffmpeg is the best.

* a basic editor/converter, for image precise cut, avidemux is pretty
fine.

With this you can get mpg video files (or any format, by the way),
fitted for dvd.

* a dvd authoring programm. There are many on openSUSE I use gany2dvd

I'm not a photo editor (I do many photos, but do not trick them). I'm
not sure Gimp do less than photoshop, but it does it very differently.
Any of them (photoshop or Gimp) needs month of learning to be mastered
