What you’ll need
- A laptop from the last ~5 years.
- Resolume Avenue or Arena — the free trial is fine for the first chapters.
- A MIDI controller helps but isn’t required to start.
- Headphones, and ideally a spare screen or projector to test output.
Why this course
Most people learn Resolume from scattered clips and pick up messy habits the first time it matters — on stage. This gives you one clear path: the workflow working VJs use, in the order that makes sense.
You start with the real basics and build until you can hold a room. 27 lessons across 4 chapters — by the end you won’t just know the buttons, you’ll know how to perform.
Tools you’ll meet.
- Resolume Avenue
- Resolume Arena
- MIDI controller
- Second screen
You only need a laptop — the free Resolume trial covers the first chapters.
