Work with the human form in creative practice

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to explore and represent the human form in professional art or design practice.

It applies to individuals who undertake two-dimensional or three-dimensional creative work that may or may not incorporate a direct representation of the human form. At this level, the practitioner works independently.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)


Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

ELEMENT

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1. Research the human form

1.1 Research information and ideas from oral, written and visual sources about the representation and use of the human form in creative practice

1.2 Investigate aspects of human physiology and anatomy relevant to own practice

1.3 Analyse and extract relevant ideas and information from research

1.4 Consider intellectual property and other legislative requirements relevant to research and development of ideas

1.5 Develop and refine informed ideas about the use of the human form in creative work

2. Visually represent the human form

2.1 Adapt ideas and knowledge about the human form for integration into abody of work

2.2 Experiment with different media and techniques to represent different aspects of the human form or reflect ideas about the human form

2.3 Identify and resolve technical problems based on developing expertise

2.4 Trial and adapt ways to represent or use the human form to develop own style

3. Evaluate own work

3.1 Evaluate development of own workwith others and seek feedback

3.2 Reflect on the particular ways that experimentation with the human form has informed own practice

3.3 Identify ways in which technique may be further developed as part of professional practice and build ideas into future work

Evidence of the ability to:

research the representation of the human form in historical and contemporary contexts

develop, refine and implement ideas about the use of the human form for application to own work

produce a complete body of creative work that shows ability to work effectively with the human form

use feedback and reflection to assess success of completed work and identify further creative opportunities.

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:

list and describe sources of information and ideas relevant to own practice

outline commonly used research methodologies for creative practitioners

describe in detail techniques used to represent or reflect the human form relevant to own area of practice

explain the aspects of human physiology and anatomy that are relevant to own work

outline the requirements of intellectual property and other legislation associated with arts practice.

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:

information sources

equipment, tools and materials used to produce work in the relative creative discipline.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.

Submission Requirements

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
