The people's pro video editor is coming...

00:08.400 --> 00:11.894
For the past ten years, a small team of dedicated developers

00:11.894 --> 00:16.448
has been building the foundations of a fast and beautiful free software video editor.

00:16.448 --> 00:21.504
In partnership with the leading open source multimedia technology, GStreamer.

00:24.234 --> 00:27.392
Pitivi is designed to be intuitive for new users,

00:27.297 --> 00:29.845
while being robust enough for professionnals.

00:29.845 --> 00:34.410
Its development strategy targets stable key functionality first,

00:34.410 --> 00:036.928
adding advanced features onto solid ground.

00:39.721 --> 00:45.000
My name is Jean-François, I've been involved in the Pitivi project for nearly ten years now.

00:45.000 --> 00:48.160
I've been providing a coherent vision and roadmap for the project.

00:48.160 --> 00:53.973
I'm Thibault Saunier, I'm one of the maintainers of Pitivi,

00:53.973 --> 00:57.024
the main maintainer of Gstreamer-Editing-Services,

00:57.024 --> 01:01.482
I started hacking on pitivi in 2010 for a GSoC [Google Summer of Code],

01:01.482 --> 01:05.557
and I am really enthusiastic about the campaign,

01:05.557 --> 01:10.314
and the fact that we should be able to work full-time on a project that we love

01:10.314 --> 01:13.493
and on something that actually matters.

01:13.493 --> 01:18.000
My name is Mathieu Duponchelle, I've been working on pitivi for a few years now,

01:18.000 --> 01:23.349
and I'm now a maintainer of Pitivi, and of Gstreamer-Editing-Services as well.

01:23.349 --> 01:29.000
The 1.0 release of GStreamer introduced quite a few bugs that we had to fix,

01:29.000 --> 01:33.290
and a few conceptual stuff that we had to change, and that's what I did

01:33.290 --> 01:35.200
during the last two years.

01:38.000 --> 01:42.600
Pitivi now needs only six months of funded development to complete stabilization.

01:42.600 --> 01:46.709
and as soon as we finish this phase of Quality Assurance, intensive bugfixing

01:46.709 --> 01:48.096
and documentation,

01:48.096 --> 01:50.550
Pitivi 1.0 will be ready for release.

01:52.402 --> 01:54.346
At six months, things get really interesting.

01:54.346 --> 01:58.000
Pitivi backers will vote on the next features to implement.

01:58.000 --> 02:00.362
Votes are calculated to value smaller donors,

02:00.362 --> 02:05.000
but are also proportional to donations, so your vote gets bigger the more you give.

02:05.000 --> 02:08.768
[..] we want to have a solid basis on [..]

02:08.768 --> 02:11.700
Yeah, stabilization and then AWESOME stuff, that's what we want.

02:14.000 --> 02:17.500
Patrons can also donate to choose feature bounties at several levels,

02:17.500 --> 02:22.500
and have their names written in the codebase in recognition of their sponsorship.

02:22.500 --> 02:26.500
Becoming a Pitivi supporter advances a fantastic video editor,

02:26.500 --> 02:31.000
while also benefiting all the projects who use its work in turn.

02:31.000 --> 02:34.000
Besides becoming a funder, there are many ways to participate.

02:34.000 --> 02:39.000
Pitivi is an active and friendly community that welcomes new testers and contributors.

02:39.000 --> 02:43.000
Pitivi belongs to the community so its growth follows public support

02:43.000 --> 02:44.458
and public demand.

02:44.600 --> 02:47.893
That means that pitivi needs you, and if you can take the time

02:47.893 --> 02:52.000
to share the campaign and spread the word, that counts for a lot too.

02:52.000 --> 02:54.165
Thanks for your support !
