Hi Lisa!
I agree with the above comments- you should have your Mac running Linux if its going to take centre stage on a vid about Linux for Linux.com! I think OSX is cool and I'd probably switch to it if got fully open sourced but the future is Linux vs Haiku vs Solaris vs BSD as it stands. Vendor lock-in should be a 20th century nasty- it is for me :D
Prove how cool linux really is and do all the future vids entirely with Linux and FOSS!
The best FOSS video tools I know of are:
kino - DV capture
cinelerra - editing + compositing
winff - easy, batch video conversion tool
DeVeDe - easy DVD and VCD creation
dvd:rip - Hmmm?
xdtv - analogue (v4l2) and DVB capture (or use kaffeine for DVB)
gtk-recordmydesktop - guess!
gimp / krita - bitmap graphics
inkscape - vector graphics
synfig - vector animation
blender - 3D graphics and animation
There you go! A complete graphics and video environment comprised of entirely FOSS! Now you have no excuses! ;)
