I use OpenShot. OpenShot is an open-source program that creates, modifies, and edits video files. This is the most stable and easy to use program on Linux.
To install, just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command(s) below:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openshot.developers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install openshot openshot-doc

You don't need to type a password after the first command. – Mitch Jul 14 '14 at 06:44

I use Kdenlive.
Type the following into a terminal:
sudo apt-get install kdenlive
It has numerous effect plugins (more than I can keep track of) plus transition plugins. Some of the effect plugins support keyframing. It can also render to any libav (ffmpeg) supported format/container.

I'm not sure how well that runs in unity or gnome based systems, though – sbergeron Jul 13 '14 at 17:44

KDE apps will work fine on non-KDE systems, so long as you have all of the dependencies installed (installing through apt-get will do that, and they don't depend on the KDE environment, just some core libs like Qt and some low-level KDE system libs). It may not look like the rest of the desktop, but users can configure this behavior using the Qt config tool (
sudo apt-get install qt4-qtconfig
) – hal7df Jul 13 '14 at 17:47
