At Levanti E.E, I began my work by designing buildings and characters in 2D using the Medibang Paint Pro program. My primary task was to design elements for a mobile game set in Athens, where the characters would travel. This project was managed by a married couple, my employers.
When my workload for the game decreased, my second employer, who didn't require my assistance every day, asked me to create Christmas-themed digital frames using Photoshop. I explained the entire process to her and sent her screenshots of the frames for approval. The final PSD files were emailed to my first employer, who handled the printing process for the frames on mugs.
After the holiday season, I resumed work on the game project. Although it was initially planned to be in 2D, we later decided to switch to 3D. However, some of the work I had completed in 2D was retained.
To create 3D assets, I searched for FBX files and also attempted to create my own using the Buildbox program. However, we encountered difficulties, and eventually, we switched to Blender. I faced challenges finding FBX files, as many were in different formats such as .skp and .max. I used a 3D file converter to convert these files to FBX format. I searched for 3D assets on various websites, including TurboSquid, Sketchfab, Blend Swap, 3D Warehouse, Free3D, Archive 3D, Blender Market, and 3D Model Free.
The progress of the game project suddenly halted without any updates. Despite being informed that the first level should be completed by February 2022, I received no further instructions.
On March 28, 2022, we began a new project at the request of my employer. This project involved creating a Greek series of memes featuring an Evzone character and Queen Amalia. I also introduced a Cypriot character to compete with the Evzone. I created sketches based on my employer's ideas and added emotions and expressions to the characters as needed.
Additionally, I designed various objects and scenarios for the memes, such as motorcycles, microphones, and beach scenes. I uploaded all the sketches to my Instagram account's Highlights.
Each time I completed a sketch, I sent it to my employer as a JPG file via Telegram. I used Medibang Paint Pro for sketching and also created a logo for the project.
In June 2022, my second employer asked me to design a logo and business card for her handmade jewelry business. I presented her with font options and created designs based on her preferences. After making necessary adjustments, I delivered the logo and business card designs as JPG files.
Once I completed this task, I returned to the sketching project for my first employer. I created final ideas for the project, including a comic-style background featuring the primary colors of the Evzone character and a retro sketch of the Evzone holding a "HOTEL" sign.
Creating the retro sketch was challenging, as I had never done one before. I used Photoshop and followed tutorials to achieve the desired retro effect. After completing the sketches, I sent them to my employer as JPG files.
On July 15, 2022, my internship ended. During my internship, the company provided insurance coverage but did not offer a salary. After completing my internship, I returned my internship book to my school on August 2, 2022, and have been searching for permanent employment since then.
