Lets talk : VJ software
Resolume 2.4
Right now I'm using Resolume 2.4 to make my projection. The soft is pretty simple for some one who already saw Photoshop and Premiere, and let say Fruityloop Studio. You play with your decks (20 video per deck) of short film trough tree layers. To merge and mix your layers just use the presents effects and play with the variation. It possible to synchronize most of the parameter with music or directly on the tempo.
I recommend it for your first trial. You do not really need a controller to fully use all the feature
Resolume 3 Avenue
I didn't fully test the new Resolume 3 Avenue yet. For what I saw it a little bit more complex...You can be DJ-VJ in same time by associating video and music sample together. So to do a good live set with this version you will need a MIDI or USB controller. If you just having an interest in vjing and want to try, it may not be the right fit...
