Welcome Marina,
Thanks for your interest.
Packaging kdenlive is currently in progress for GuixSD, so that is an option. Another option would be using ffmpeg directly to assemble the videos.
The minimal requirements were determined to be: a slideshow like video assembled from static images and timing data, support for subtitle files in multiple languages and support for multiple audio streams. These were determined on the basis, so that we do not require broadband connection from our applicants. If you have a connection with enough bandwidth available, the we are also open to other options. I suggest using screen record only style, so that we can more easily translate the videos later.
We also require, that the video can be assembled and edited by using free tools only. Otherwise we are open to options.
Best regards,

Welcome Marina,
thank you very much for your interest!
Concerning your question: I started co-mentoring this project only 3
days ago. To not say anything wrong, I forward the question to Gábor
Boskovits, who is the main mentor and will answer in more details.
In General, you need to make a successful contribution to the project,
as is stated in the project page in more details.
A first start is to install Guix. Either on top of an existing
GNU/Linux installation, or standalone, either on bare metal or a
virtual environment.
See the Docs for more details:
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Installation.html
https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/System-Installation.html
Get familiar with Guix, just play around, install package, roll back,
etc.
Then make a contribution, by either adding a package definition or by
augenting the manual.
If you have any problems or questions or don't understand a topic please
ask on the mailing list or the #guix channel on freenode. The community
is very welcoming!
Happy Outreach!
Yours,
Björn
