Participation:selected creatives will participate in all planned CREAMARE events, including an on-site residency (1 week) and online co-working period (remote to co-design and co-production):

1. Participate in a 1-week residency program in Cosenza (Italy) during the the first weeks of October (exact dates to be communicated): workshops, brainstorming, design thinking sessions, discussions, etc. (mandatory).
   

2. Remote co-design and co-production program through web platforms: technological experts, game developers, creative professionals and researchers will cooperate to produce the requested material under the technical and artistic direction of CREAMARE project’s partners (by the end of February 2024). (mandatory)
   NOTE: weekly and on-demand online sessions will be defined through a shared calendar.

Expected results for each creative professional:

1. 1. Sound designer:
      • At least 3 original multiple instruments soundtracks to represent the moods of the different phases of the game. The 3 soundtracks should have some small variations in relation to the underwater sites.
      • Characterization of at least 1 non-human character through sounds (minimum 20 different original sound effects).
      • At least 30 sound effects for terrestrial and underwater scenes.
   2. 3D Artist / Character Artist:
      • Concepts, 3D models and animations of at least 3 different non-human characters (both organic and mechanical) with color/shape variants.
      • Concepts, 3D models and animations of at least 3 human characters (rigged).
   3. 3D Artist / General Artist:
      • 3D models and props of at least 2 environments (e.g. a modern museum, a futuristic lab);
      • 3D models, animations, and props of marine and underwater sites objects (Mediterranean flora and fauna, boats, rocks, reefs, etc.)
      • 3D models, animations and props related to environmental threats (marine litter, platforms, cleaning tools, remoted operated vehicles, etc.)
   4. Level designer / Environment Artist:
      • Level design of no. 6 underwater sites, integrating underwater (3d model of the shipwrecks/structures) and terrestrial assets (coastal area, boats, etc.), including visual effects, flora and fauna.
        NOTE: Each underwater site will have two different moods.
      • Management of lights, lightmaps, VFX, performance optimization.
   5. Level designer / Environment Artist:
      • Level design of no. 3 underwater sites, integrating underwater (3d model of the shipwrecks/structures (and terrestrial assets (coastal area, boats, etc.), including visual effects, flora and fauna.
        NOTE: Each underwater site will have two different moods.
      • Level design of the museum scenario.
        NOTE: Some rooms of the museum will have two different moods.
      • Management of lights, lightmaps, VFX, performance optimization.
   6. Level designer / Environment Artist / Animator:
      • Level design of the futuristic scenario.
      • Management of lights, lightmaps, VFX, performance optimization
      • At least no. 6 cut-scenes, settled in the museum, in the futuristic scenario and in the marine/underwater environment.

The Expected Results are only indicative and may vary slightly over the project course. They allow candidates to assess the effort required.

Attendance: The selected creatives have to attend online meetings, interviews, webinars, consultancy sessions, and progress reviews and contribute to the project reporting.

Engagement: As success depends on the activation and engagement of European audiences, creatives are encouraged to support CREAMARE’s communication and objectives by using their personal and professional communication channels and networks.

Commitment: A contract with the CREAMARE Consortium will define the terms and conditions for the intellectual property rights of digital works. In any case, participants will be asked to grant all necessary rights for work dissemination in all the project’s activities.
