Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

CUAHAZ401 - Perform hazardous action sequences using vehicles

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Prepare for execution of background driving and hazardous action sequences

  1. Notify relevant personnel on arrival at location and confirm capacity to drive vehicles required for background driving and hazardous action sequences
  2. Confirm, with relevant personnel, whether required action sequences involve background driving or hazardous action sequences, and prepare accordingly
  3. Review skill requirements and own experience and that of other specialist personnel for relevance to proposed sequences
  4. Note camera locations for coverage of background driving and hazardous action sequences
  5. Review production information and check cast and crew for technical suitability, production requirements and safety compliance
  6. Note positioning and movement of all personnel involved in background driving and hazardous action sequences to facilitate visual continuity and editing
  7. Consider alternative execution methods for background driving and hazardous action sequences
  8. Confirm, with relevant personnel, that planned background driving and hazardous action sequences comply with legal and regulatory requirements

Range Statement

This section specifies different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.

Safety standards and regulatory requirements must consider

(MEAA) requirements under stunt performer grading systems

work health and safety (WHS) regulations

crowd control requirements, if productions involve members of the public as participants or observers

environmental planning and security requirements, e.g. noise levels, release of smoke and other special effects, clean-up

licensing requirements, e.g. high-risk occupations; transporting, setting up, storing and discharging firearms, blank ammunition and pyrotechnic effects; vehicle licensing and insurance

access to police, emergency and medical service providers.
