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!

5.3 Clean and store equipment and accessories according to workplace procedures

Evidence of the ability to:

use a stills digital camera to capture photo images that meet specific requirements

use digital software to enhance images to meet the quality and look required by the projects

store images and equipment according to workplace requirements.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

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

identify features of standard digital cameras and explain how these impact on a camera’s photographic capability

summarise elements and principles of design for photo images

describe how light constrains and lighting enhances photographic image capture

describe pixel count (megapixels) and how this relates to the resolution and output size of the final image

describe how metadata is used to categorise photographic images

outline cleaning techniques for cameras and accessories

identify work health and safety requirements when using screens and keyboards for extended periods of time.
