Hi,

I currently have a Canon DSLR and want to buy a rode video mic and a ring light for better quality shoots. Since there's only one hotshoe mount, would a hotshoe splitter work for this?

Yes, it should work. Since both of those aren't powered by the hotshoe itself, just mounting something on it won't hurt.
