Well, that's exactly what I mean when I speak out against video loop sales packages, this contentpackages shity. You can certainly use someone else's video loop in individual cases for once, but actually that's the core of VJ work, to create by U own & for self contents specifically for certain events and shows made. Of course I use videos too, but I make them myself using 3D apps, mandelbulber, Gimp & Krita and tools like NukeX etc. The live performance is just the result, like the dessert, of the hard work. And this is what distinguishes the real VJ from the standard DJ who just uses other people's productions for his work, whereas a music DJ is also more of an entertainer and moderator since the beginning of this profession then a artist.
If you can't create cool content yourself, you should call yourself a videooperator or videotecnical rather than a VJ, & to which is why I don't really like the abbreviation VJ and I see myself more as a video or visual artist.

So just because you can operate a bit and use a program like Arena, VDMX or something similar via content packages does not make you a VJ! -!!!!!!!
