By all means get a teacher! You will need to establish good technique and you will not get any feedback regarding this from a DVD. There is a LOT to know....wether you are using a plectrum or your fingers. (or both) how to position your hand on the neck, how to hold down strings, how to alternate pick strokes...well, you get the picture.

After you know how to position yourself, have the requisite muscle memory, callouses, and coordination you can look into DVDs and the internet as sources for specific genres.

Best of luck
