I've been exploring the world of Linux-based NLEs for a while, perhaps 
you'll be interested in these articles:

A profile of CinelerraCV will be up soon. I'm also putting the finishing 
touches to profiles about Blender, PiTiVi, OpenMovieEditor, Avidemux, 
and Kino.

At what stage(s) are you involved ? Will you only be composing the music 
or will you be involved with the audio/video post-production ? The music 
composition part isn't so tough, the post-production can be rather 
bewildering. You'll select different formats and options to accommodate 
your intended targets, and target formats depend on purpose and 
residence, i.e. is it a polished demo for a DVD, a low-res clip for 
YouTube/Vimeo/Facebook/self-advertisement-tool-du-jour, a DV file 
destined for a camcorder tape, or ... ?

HTH,
