Looking for video editing software

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)
