C + asm are certainly very relevant skills

I don't know how far along the plans for GSoC 2019 are, but if you have
a project idea you could pitch it. There's also some useful information
and ideas on the wiki(s):

https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/WikiStart
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/SponsoringPrograms/GSoC/2018
https://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php/FFmpeg_Summer_Of_Code
https://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php/Small_FFmpeg_Tasks

Not all of this may be up to date, and it might not be all of it, but
it should give an idea at least.
