Chi tiết công việc
Project Imo supports its framework through a series of programs including youth leadership development initiatives, child and youth educational programs and products, community leadership and team building services and programs, innovative and scientifically supported educational tools and resources, and preserving natural spaces for use in these endeavors.
Team Imo leverages over two centuries of experience in a wide variety of disciplines that merge into a comprehensive approach to community building and service delivery for children and youth, underserved community groups, a wide variety of community stakeholders, and our natural world. Our growing and passionate community includes experienced outdoor and classroom educators and youth services professionals, innovative technology experts, research professionals, justice system professionals, and conservationists.
Do you have the ability to bring wondrous characters, beasts, and terrain to life in a virtual environment?
Can your sculpt transport someone to far-away lands of adventure?
Can your visions translate into 3D printing and onto the tabletop?!
If so...
Be a part of The Skies of Seorsus a Creative Worlds educational RPG
Project Imo is building out our own tabletop educational opportunities for youth. Our Creative Worlds games integrate immersive tabletop gaming and off-table activities that encourage social-emotional, STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math), and conservation learning.
The Skies of Seorsus will feature a partially defined world that allows educators and players to have creative spaces and build themselves into the larger story universe in an inclusive, engaging, and rules agnostic way.
Our Creative Worlds system in-development will be a highly adaptable, easy to implement game that incorporates elements of tabletop role playing, board gaming, formal educational tools, experiential SEL activities, STEAM learning, and conservation education.
We are looking for creative, team-oriented 3D sculptors who understand 3D printing to help bring the world of Seorsus to live through character-driven stories, wonderous descriptions of fantastic beasts, and more.
If you love RPG adventure and helping kids explore natural sciences in creative and prosocial ways, then this opportunity is for YOU!
