If you havnt yet, setup what you need to fetch and build FFmpeg (git, c compiler, ...) get ffmpeg from git, build it and then do something with it thats interresting to you. Maybe look at our bug tracker if you can find some bug you want to try to fix. Thats a good way for you to find out if you like working on FFmpegs codebase > > 3.

It should be there: but its ATM listing too few ideas https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/SponsoringPrograms/GSoC/2021 you can also look at previous years lists but keep in mind this year google decided to shorten the time so previous years project ideas might be too much. Thats also why we are a bit behind with the list we need new or adapted ideas for this year.
