List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
ELEMENT | PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Interpret creative briefs | 1.1 Analyse scripts and related documentation to determine creative and technical criteria for productions 1.2 Participate in preliminary concept meetings to discuss scope of production requirements 1.3 Identify factors that may determine and affect development of camera plans 1.4 Generate a range of preliminary ideas for camera coverage in response to briefs and provide creative solutions to production requirements 1.5 Discuss and refine ideas with production personnel until a workable approach emerges |
2. Identify camera coverage requirements | 2.1 Review reference material that could assist decisions about camera coverage 2.2 Identify basic structural camera shots for realising scenes and investigate their potential for achieving narrative outcomes 2.3 Confirm camera coverage is appropriate to contextual and stylistic requirements 2.4 Evaluate ideas in collaboration with relevant production personnel to determine viability of proposed concepts 2.5 Prepare and distribute documentation about proposed camera coverage for use by production personnel |
3. Develop draft camera plans | 3.1 Develop camera coverage that addresses visual and narrative aspects of production 3.2 Approach camera coverage to enable the narrative to be controlled and carried forward throughout the production 3.3 Organise testing of draft camera plans to verify photographic outcomes can be achieved 3.4 Complete camera plan’s associated documentation within agreed timeframes |
4. Finalise camera plans | 4.1 Present draft camera plans and specifications to production personnel in an appropriate format 4.2 Negotiate modifications to creative and technical criteria and amend camera plans as required 4.3 Agree to final plans and produce accurate and comprehensive documentation to support implementation 4.4 Present final plans and specifications to production personnel and confirm that all production requirements have been met |
Evidence of the ability to:
interpret screen production scripts from the perspective of devising camera coverage
collaborate with production personnel to arrive at approaches to camera coverage that meet creative and technical criteria
develop documentation that outlines approaches to camera coverage
outline strategies for visualising written narratives in draft camera plans, incorporating input from production personnel
communicate and negotiate effectively with creative and production personnel during the process of developing, testing and finalising camera plans.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
outline typical ways of documenting camera plans
explain how key production elements and photographic principles are taken into account when devising camera coverage
describe roles and responsibilities of production personnel who need to be consulted during the process of devising camera coverage
identify typical problems associated with devising camera coverage and briefly describe solutions
describe visual story-telling techniques and ways of moving from a written to visual narrative.
Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in creative arts industry environments. The assessment environment must include access to:
production documentation
productions and production personnel.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
