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!

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

Clarify the animation requirements of models

  1. Clarify the animation requirements and design specifications for the model, in consultation with the relevant personnel, and according to the production documentation
  2. Examine the most appropriate animation techniques for the animation, in order to determine which modelling techniques to use
  3. Identify the file format and delivery platform for animated sequences
  4. Identify factors that may influence the animation design approach
  5. Clarify work flow sequences, in consultation with the relevant personnel, to ensure that production schedule deadlines are met

Plan the approach

  1. Research animations, artworks and other creative sources that may inspire visual design ideas
  2. Generate a range of animation ideas that are technically feasible, respond to briefs, and provide creative solutions to all design issues
  3. Present animation ideas to the relevant personnel using appropriate design techniques
  4. Adjust the approach to incorporate feedback, and agree on final design concepts
  5. Discuss and select animation software with the relevant personnel to ensure that the animated sequences of the model meet specified outcomes
  6. Analyse audio assets supplied for animations, as required

Evidence of the ability to:

create digital animated sequences of a model that:

demonstrates the principles of simple model animation, basic screen, visual design and communication

meets the technical requirements of specific platforms

satisfies the design brief and client requirements

meets the production deadlines.

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:

outline basic digital animation techniques

outline the principles of animation, screen, visual design and communication in relation to the production of animated sequences

describe the features of a range of delivery platforms for animated sequences

discuss the issues and challenges that arise in the context of creating models for digital animations

outline the stages in the production process from initial design through to finished product

outline the roles and responsibilities of project team members.
