I am not say that they developed any top new product but a freeware that is quite useful. They are productive and creative and have future. SG youth aren't even half as good, and we have to educate your students towards this standard.

PiTiVi pronounciation is a free, intuitive and featureful movie editor for the Linux desktop.
Anything in, anything out.
As long as it is supported by the GStreamer Multimedia Framework, PiTiVi will handle any format you throw at it.
Easy to learn: usability counts.
There is no eternal newbie. PiTiVi's user interface is carefully designed to suit both the newcomer and the professional, to be efficient and intuitive.
We have some highly trained designer monkeys that work towards that goal, and can even recite the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines in their sleep, backwards, all for you.
Free and Open Source.
PiTiVi will not ask you for licensing fees or lock you out of your data with DRM, and will keep improving with each new release. PiTiVi is distributed under the LGPL.
Want more? See the full list of features... or some of the praises/positive comments we have received so far.

<h2>Preferences dialog</h2>
<p>This is where you set the behavior of the application. We try to keep the amount of preferences to a minimum, because you have better things to do and we try to design "the right way" instead of adding options for everything.</p>

<h2>Project Settings</h2>
<p>This where you set the global settings in your project (so that the previewer widget knows the proper resolution and aspect ratio to use, among other things). What you set in this dialog will be used for the rendering dialog as default values. You can create your own presets (like those shown in this screenshot) and use esoteric custom framerates.</p>
<p>We don’t ship presets by default, but probably will one day (we need someone to implement that, patches welcome).</p>

<h2>Rendering</h2>
<p>Here you can choose the container format and the video/audio codecs to be used for rendering. The resolution and framerate are based on the global project settings, but you can override them and say, for example, “render my 720p24 video at 12 frames per second and 25% of its resolution” for a quick preview/test.</p>
