Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Experiment with video art techniques and media
   • Evaluate the potential for new approaches to video art based on capabilities of techniques and media already used
   • Adapt or introduce new tools, equipment and materials to achieved different effects
   • Experiment and extend the capabilities of video art techniques
   • Use tools, equipment, materials and techniques safely and sustainably
2. Develop ideas for video art
   • Discuss with key others creative and other goals for video art works
   • Research, adapt and use relevant ideas and approaches of other practitioners with consideration of intellectual property rights
   • Consider the potential of different digital imaging techniques when developing initial concepts
   • Refine and confirm concept based on experimentation, research and collaboration with others
3. Organise video art resources
   • Assess specific resource requirements for development and presentation of works
   • Research and access potential sources of supply for video art resources
   • Evaluate cost and other constraints that impact on the development and presentation of works
   • Set up or coordinate resources according to safety and other workplace requirements
4. Realise finished video art
   • Use safe and sustainable practices throughout the production of work
   • Create video art using techniques and media selected through research and experimentation
   • Review and refine ideas and approaches to complete the works
   • Finalise images in a format suitable for presentation and archive files according to industry standards
   • Document and record the development of the work and the research and ideas that informed it
5. Evaluate own video artwork
   • Reflect on own work in terms of conceptual development and technical execution to identify areas for improvement
   • Discuss completed work and use feedback to improve future works

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

develop ideas and techniques for video art through a process of research and experimentation

produce multiple finished video art pieces or a single major work that demonstrates a command of techniques

articulate ideas and techniques in own video art work processes

review own skills, performance and creative work and identify future areas for improvement.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

Knowledge Evidence

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

explain the role of experimentation in developing and refining ideas for video art

describe ways to adapt, extend and combine the capabilities of a wide range of video art technologies and techniques

identify characteristics of different materials under different treatments and describe different video art effects that can be achieved

outline how the works of other practitioners may be used to inform individual practice

describe sources of supply for video art resources

outline intellectual property issues to be considered by video art practitioners

describe practices and procedures for working safely and sustainably with materials, tools and equipment for producing video art.
