Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to explore and use a range of combined techniques to produce finished calligraphic work from design concepts which are reviewed and adjusted during the work in progress.It applies to individuals who are still developing their expertise in design and technique. They work under supervision but have some independence and use discretion and judgement within defined guidelines.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

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:

equipment, tools and materials used to produce calligraphic work

relevant information sources

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Plan calligraphy work through exploration
  • Explore ideas and techniques for own calligraphic work in consultation with key people as required
  • Review historical and contemporary calligraphic practice as a potential source of ideas
  • Clarify and confirm ideas for calligraphic work based on exploration, discussion and consideration of intellectual property requirements
  • Select and use appropriate strategies to assess capabilities of calligraphy techniques
  • Select techniques that best support ideas for own work
       
Element: Prepare, maintain and store calligraphy resources
  • Calculate, select and organise type and quantity of calligraphic equipment, tools and materials based on the needs of the chosen work
  • Prepare, maintain and dispose of equipment, tools and materials according to workplace safety and sustainability requirements
  • Clean and store equipment, tools and materials according to specific needs of different items
       
Element: Create finished calligraphic work
  • Use and adapt combined calligraphy techniques to create desired effects, considering and applying elements and principles of design
  • Review work in progress and make adjustments, as required, to produce final work
  • Handle equipment, tools and materials safely and minimise waste throughout all processes
  • Add value to current and future work process by documenting the work progress
  • Liaise with others to obtain and consider feedback on technical proficiency of work and success in communicating ideas
       


Evidence Required

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

outline techniques to achieve different effects in calligraphic works

summarise the main aspects of historical and contemporary calligraphic practice and how they can inform own design ideas

describe, for the elements and principles of design, the key characteristics, key interrelationships and use in calligraphic work

summarise, for a range of tools and equipment used to produce calligraphic work, key physical features and uses, cleaning and maintenance techniques and storage requirements

describe the physical properties and capabilities of a range of materials and techniques used to produce calligraphic work

discuss typical work space requirements for producing calligraphic work including ways of organising space and equipment for efficient work operation

describe procedures for working safely with calligraphy materials, tools and equipment.
