2. Move physical elements | 2.1 Load and unload physical elements in the correct order, taking care to avoid damage 2.2 Use safe manual-handling techniques throughout the loading and unloading process to avoid injury and damage 2.3 Identify hazardous items and load them in a manner that minimises risk to health and safety 2.4 Install or position physical elements in appropriate work or storage area according to directions 2.5 Inspect load prior to transportation to ensure that all items are loaded appropriately, and make adjustments as required 2.6 Clear and clean work areas according to organisational procedures |
3. Finalise activities | 3.1 Check the condition of physical elements to ensure that no damage has occurred during bump in or bump out 3.2 Inform relevant personnel of items that need repair and complete documentation as required 3.3 Seek feedback on own work performance and note areas for improvement |
Evidence of Performance
Evidence of the ability to:
move, pack and load production equipment under instruction for at least two productions
use safe manual-handling techniques when moving physical elements
work collaboratively.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided for each of the above points at least once.
Evidence of Knowledge
To complete the unit requirements the individual must:
describe procedures and processes for bumping in and bumping out different types of productions
describe physical elements used for different types of productions and typical locations for them in production venues
describe the roles and responsibilities of personnel involved in the bump in and bump out process
explain how safe manual-handling techniques apply to the movement of physical elements
describe packing materials and techniques used for different types of equipment
describe techniques for loading and stowing equipment for safe transportation
describe the range of tools commonly required during the bump in and bump out process.
Assessment Conditions
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:
a venue or location for bump in and bump out
transport vehicles into which physical elements can be loaded.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
