Your biggest problem is going to be finding a decent video editor with
such and old linux install. I would recommend kdenlive, but they only
have current versions in their PPA for versions of ubuntu going back to
16.04 (Xenial).
You might do OK with a version of kdenlive from 14.04, but it was a
little fairly rough back then, and it's come a long long way in the last
4 year.
For video, you'll want to get some recent versions of whatever software
you find as video editing in general has come a long way in recent
years, and most video editors are based off the same core libraries
(ffmpeg and the MeLT framework)
