interpreting and representing

exploring, selecting and manipulating of a range of media, materials and drawing styles

using shape, plane and volume in drawing and rendering

creating texture in drawing (real and implied)

applying black and white and coloured rendering techniques

applying composition techniques

using rendering applications and techniques and tools for the creation of illustration effects

expressing self through intuitive and expressive drawing

Overview of assessment

A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to apply a range of drawing techniques to illustrate perspectives and features of jewellery or object designs in relationship with the human form.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently:

demonstrate analytical, observational and imaginative drawing techniques to represent features of jewellery or object designs on the human figure

produce expressive figure drawings from life model

use drawing tools, materials and techniques to communicate relationship of jewellery and objects to the human form.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

This unit may be assessed on the job, off the job or a combination of both on and off the job.

Where applicable, reasonable adjustment must be made to work environments and training situations to accommodate ethnicity, age, gender, demographics and disability.

Access must be provided to appropriate learning and/or assessment support when required. Where applicable, physical resources should include equipment modified for people with disabilities.

Method of assessment

Assessment must satisfy the endorsed Assessment Guidelines of the MEM05 Metal and Engineering Training Package.

Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge.

Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application.

Assessment may be applied under project-related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process.

Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances.

Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency where required.

Guidance information for assessment

Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the language and literacy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.

pencils

ink (brush, pen and wash)

charcoal (natural and compressed)

conte
