Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Clarify work requirements
   • Clarify the requirements for, and purpose of, 3-D digital modelling techniques and refer to the production documentation, WHS requirements and roles of project team members
   • Clarify work-flow sequences in consultation with the relevant personnel, to ensure that production schedule deadlines are met
   • Select the software that best suits the type of production and delivery platform for which simple 3-D modelling techniques are being applied
   • Gather and analyse reference materials to help with the application of modelling techniques
2. Apply simple 3-D modelling techniques
   • Apply simple 3-D modelling techniques to create 3-D models
   • Use software features to block out models in order to determine the correct proportions related to reference materials
   • Manipulate software features to apply basic lighting and shaders to the models, as required
   • Ensure that the topology of the models allows for appropriate deformation, as required
   • Progressively refine, and check, the integrity of the models until they meet design requirements
   • Submit models to the relevant personnel for comment regarding whether production requirements have been met, and make final adjustments as required
   • Render and output the models in the required format, and submit to the relevant personnel by agreed deadlines
   • Make backup copies of files and complete workplace documentation, according to enterprise procedures

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:
