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. Prepare for outside broadcasts | 1.1 Determine scope and timelines of outside broadcast (OB) requirements in consultation with relevant personnel 1.2 Check equipment and organise repairs as required in readiness for OB 1.3 Determine a connection from OB point to program centre, conducting site surveys as required 1.4 Collaborate in pre-production sessions to ensure effective coordination of production and technical operations 1.5 Anticipate potential problems and discuss solutions or contingency plans with relevant personnel in line with creative, technical and budgetary requirements |
2. Coordinate technical operations during outside broadcasts | 2.1 Activate OB vehicle on location, where relevant, according to enterprise procedures 2.2 Install and safely test equipment at OB locations following industry regulations and standards 2.3 Establish and maintain signal and communication paths between OB point and program centre 2.4 Communicate effectively during OB with master control from OB point using enterprise protocols 2.5 Respond promptly and appropriately in the event of equipment failure 2.6 Monitor quality of signal from OB point and adjust as required |
3. Finalise outside broadcast location operations | 3.1 Check equipment is dismantled and stored according to enterprise procedures 3.2 Return OB location to original or improved condition 3.3 Document issues pertaining to the OB production as required 3.4 Ensure OB equipment is sent for repair as required 3.5 Collaborate in debriefing sessions with production personnel and note areas for improvement |
Evidence of the ability to:
plan, coordinate and monitor an outside broadcast (OB) and meet production requirements, including timelines
install and test OB equipment at OB locations
monitor and adjust broadcast signal to achieve highest quality output
follow enterprise protocols to communicate with other production personnel during an OB according
dismantle and store OB equipment correctly and return OB location to original condition
report and document OB production issues
work collaboratively with other production staff to improve OBs.
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:
describe features and functionality of equipment used in enterprise-specific OB equipment, facilities and systems
identify regulatory and industry standards relevant to OB systems
explain equipment and processes used to test OB equipment
identify communication and signal paths used in OB operations
outline typical problems that arise when coordinating OBs and how to handle these
identify work health and safety requirements as they relate to using equipment in OB facilities.
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:
an broadcasting environment, with suitable equipment
information about regulatory and industry standards
interaction with others.
Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
