Evidence Required
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.
The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package. | |
Overview of assessment | |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit | The following evidence is critical to the judgement of competence in this unit: ability to use appropriate techniques to construct costumes which incorporate materials other than fabric knowledge of different materials and how to use these in costume construction. |
Context of and specific resources for assessment | The assessment context must provide for: practical demonstration of skills through the production of specialised costumes for an actual production. |
Method of assessment | Assessment may incorporate a range of methods to assess performance and the application of essential underpinning knowledge, and might include: evaluation of costumes created by the candidate in relation to creative and production quality oral questioning/interview aimed at evaluating the processes used in developing costume specifications evaluation of sketches, drawings or specifications developed by the candidate third party reports and portfolios of evidence. Assessment methods should closely reflect workplace demands and the needs of particular groups (eg people with disabilities, and people who may have literacy or numeracy difficulties such as speakers of languages other than English, remote communities and those with interrupted schooling). Assessment of this unit requires access to: costume designs from which the candidate can develop specifications and undertake construction equipment, tools and materials used for construction of specialised costumes. |
Guidance information for assessment | This unit has linkages to a range of other costume units and combined assessment and/or training with those units may be appropriate, eg: CUECOS02C Apply art finishing |

Assessment Tasks
Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
|
Required skills |
Typical problems and challenges encountered with specialised costume construction, including issues surrounding the need for costumes to withstand the demands of performance, comfort of the performer and use of costume doubles. |
Required knowledge |
overview of the scope of the types of specialised costumes that can be constructed different materials, their properties and uses in specialised costume construction techniques for working with materials other than fabric in costume construction, including moulding and the integration of different materials and fabrics within the overall construction. |
The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included. | |
Specialised costumes may include: | abstract costumes armoury distorted human human puppet costumes industrial textiles latex science fiction. |
Materials that may need to be incorporated into the costume may include: | clay composite fabric foam industrial textiles latex plastics surgical textiles vinyl wire. |
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
Observation Checklist
Tasks to be observed according to workplace/college/TAFE policy and procedures, relevant legislation and Codes of Practice | Yes | No | Comments/feedback |
---|---|---|---|
Interpret design sketches and other production documentation and liaise with other production personnel to determine the need for specialised costumes. | |||
Undertake research to establish the broad parameters for costume construction, including availability of materials. | |||
Use research material to appropriately adapt styles for the particular production. | |||
Conduct experimentation and testing to determine the appropriate equipment, tools, materials and techniques. | |||
Determine correct quantity and cost of materials required for construction with consideration of efficient use of resources. | |||
Produce accurate working drawings and specifications for specialised costumes. | |||
Negotiate requirements for assistance with manufacture by other departments or personnel where necessary. | |||
Take and accurately record performer's measurements. | |||
Develop pattern shapes appropriately to meet design specifications. | |||
Identify performance and performers' costume requirements to ensure that costume construction is practical and appropriate to the performance. | |||
Select materials for supports and bases to meet production requirements. | |||
Construct internal supports, fabric base and outer costume to achieve the requirements and specifications of performance, performers and design. |
