Davinci Resolve is free, and it's a very professional piece of software. It was literally built for Hollywood. It does have a paid upgrade with stuff you don't really need. I only use the free version, which is highly functional.
Using Davinci Resolve (or After Effects) will give you things that you simply could not do in Photoshop.
For example, I can track a head with the automatic tracker in Davinci resolve, and then use the tracking data to put a different head on the body.
In Photoshop, you would have to manually move the new head frame-by-frame. So In Davinci Resolve I could do something in two minutes, that would take be 30 minutes in photoshop (for example).
But I think it's good to start in Photoshop, seeing as though you already know how to use Photoshop.
I'll have to try it, then. The software being free is a huge plus for me, since I won't lose anything by trying it out. Thanks for the suggestion!
