Paul Orlando Caggegi (He/Him)
Pleased to meet you! My name is Paul, and I am a skilled video editor, educator, illustrator and content creator with over 20 years experience.
After graduating in 2001 from UWS Nepean, I have worked on corporate campaigns, TV commercials, web-videos, showreels and media branding packages for clients such as M&C Saachi, Leo Burnett, DDB, Nickelodeon, and MTV.
I’ve created comic content for BMW, which appeared in a 60th anniversary publication of short personal stories.
I’ve created references for DC Comic artists such as Jason Badower and Eric Owens, plus my own body of personal comic art.
I also have years of face-to-face teaching experience, having lectured at JMC Academy and SAE.
During my extensive career, I have worn many hats. I’ve been an educator, illustrator, video editor, and have worked in advertising. I’ve applied a variety of the skills I’ve learned to more recent online content.
RECENT WORK:
In 2025, I produced the Blender Basics course forCG Cookie, a comprehensive guide to get you started with Blender.
It built upon the foundations of previous course iterations, but as a new host, I had to completely re-record and re-script many of the lessons. Blender’s tools have evolved over time, and it is important to keep the information fresh and relevant. It was well-recieved by my team, as well as students.
Check out some of these reviews:
It is available as a free course at CGCookie.com, but you can also access Blender Basics on the CG Cookie official Youtube Channel.
I produced several other courses during my years there, including DRAW! an introduction to Blender’s Grease Pencil.
Students have gotten a great deal of knowledge from this one – and that’s what makes me most proud.
This course is also free on CG Cookie’s Youtube Channel, but the advantage of taking a free course via their website was always the community interaction and access to course content – which I also supplied.
I also produced a couple courses for Canopy Games which are still being purchased to this day through Udemy. It is a joy when people who completed those courses approach me at a conference and show me their work!
ILLUSTRATING WITH THE GREASE PENCIL
Blender is not the only software I have provided education for. Concepting in Krita covers learning about Krita’s interface, customizing it and then creating 1x interior, 1x exterior and 1x character.
CONCEPTING WITH KRITA
I promote my own art and work on platforms like Mastodon and Instagram mostly, but I like to share the best stuff right here. I hope you check some of it out on the portfolio pages!
