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. Establish brief for sound system | 1.1 Liaise with relevant people to determine production requirements 1.2 Research and identify best options to meet production requirements 1.3 Confirm that production requirements can be implemented within available budget and resources 1.4 Source additional expertise as required |
2. Develop sound plan | 2.1 Develop draft sound plan to meet production requirements 2.2 Draw and notate microphone plots, sound sources, block diagrams and layout as required 2.3 Anticipate problems that might arise during implementation of sound plan, and manage accordingly 2.4 Seek feedback on draft sound plan from relevant people, and amend as necessary |
3. Implement sound plan | 3.1 Monitor sound team to ensure they meet their obligations and production requirements 3.2 Negotiate and agree on changes to sound plan with relevant people 3.3 Check that sound system is tuned to achieve desired result 3.4 Address sound equipment problems with minimum disruption to production 3.5 Follow work health and safety (WHS) procedures, and use safe work practices when implementing sound plans and listening to sound systems 3.6 Prepare and update production documentation as required |
4. Evaluate sound plan | 4.1 Consult relevant people to evaluate effectiveness of sound plan in meeting production requirements 4.2 Evaluate own role in implementation of sound plan, and note areas for improvement 4.3 Provide feedback to team members on their performance as required 4.4 Document evaluation of sound plan in line with production requirements and enterprise procedures |
Evidence of the ability to:
research and identify the sound requirements for productions
develop sound plans that clearly specify all production requirements
implement sound plans for at least two productions or events as part of a collaborative team
document evaluation of sound plans against production requirements.
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:
describe the elements of a sound plan
list and describe possible production requirements that may need to be considered in the development of a sound plan
explain the issues and challenges that typically arise when implementing sound plans, and how to address them
outline the work health and safety (WHS) principles of safe listening, including safeguards against hearing loss.
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:
relevant equipment
productions or events where sound is required
relevant production documentation
interaction with others.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
