Well, one piece of open source software I'll certainly be using is Audacity, for editing audio files. It's as good as anything around for simple podcast editing. GIMP is *not bad* for photo editing although I'm much more familiar with Photoshop (and more qualified to use it).
When it comes to design for brochures and booklets (for example) I'd use Adobe Fireworks to create any graphics or images I'd need. I'd use Acrobat to be able to work closely with designers, especially during an iterative design process (such as the ongoing one for our 2012 annual report) rather than listing everything in long open office documents.
Hmm desktop publishing:

For video editing (vox pops and so on) I'd use Adobe Premiere.
Hmm in principle Cinelerra would be an option but the reviews I've seen of that would be rather mixed
