I've used Kdenlive for most of my videos, for the most part I just do splicing and audio correction, but occasionally I go further. In this video I show a couple of more advanced effects of Colour correction, Scanline removal, and Chromakey in action.

Preview of NanoLinux, a tiny full GUI Distro that even comes with a few apps pre-installed. It weighs in at 14MB for the ISO file and requires just 64MB of RAM. In theory you could run it on a 20+ year old 486.
However its no where near perfect, in particular there are very few apps available.
At this point I would take Tiny Core Linux.

190MB RAM used on bootup, with a desktop nearly as fancy as KDE / Cinnamon. Moksha desktop (fork of Enlightenment E17) hasn’t really changed with this release of Bodhi Linux 5.0.0. The main change has been an uplift of the core OS to Ubuntu 18.04.
A few of the themes, wallpapers, and desktop customisations have been removed, which has led to a more streamlined experience.
