The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included. |
Tools may include: | bladesbrushes computer, scanner, printer and relevant softwarediscs, CDsrags scrapers spatulas spongessticks. |
|
Materials may include: | charcoal graphite ink and wash pastels and chalks pencils from H-HB, B-9Brange of papers of differing weights and textureswatercolour wood, board, fabrics of differing weights and textures, glass, perspex or metal surfaces. |
|
Workplace procedures may relate to such things as: | cost controlprocess-specific proceduresrecyclingreportingsafetyuse of materials. |
|
Safety requirements would be in accordance with: | Federal, State and Territory legislation, regulations and standards. |
|
Organisation and maintenance of the work space may relate to: | lighting wet and dry areasworking tables, easels. |
|
Assessing the capabilities of the techniques, tools and materials may involve: | experimenting directly with work in progressproducing test pieces or samplessystematically testing a range of processes. |
|
Within this unit the candidate would generally extend, build upon and combine a range of techniques which may include: | combination of erasing and layering of marks in a range of mediadigital drawing techniqueslayering of marks in a range of mediaoverlapping or superimposing translucent marks over other translucent imageryusing mixed drawing media and a range of techniques to produce drawings, e.g. 'wet' techniques over 'dry' techniques. |
|
Techniques may also include extending and building upon the following techniques: | linear marks of differing intensity and character, e.g. thick, sharp, thin, curvilinear, soft (side of pencil or crayon) linear marks to produce illusion of 3D form simple linear perspective through the use of a vanishing pointtonal range to produce illusion of 3D form. |
|
The conceptual vision may be determined by: | elements and principles of designthe relationship of the work to a theoretical and historical contextthe subject matter or theme for the drawings, e.g. the body; identity; land and place; political, cultural, social issues; spiritual concerns. |
|
Criteria for the selection of techniques may relate to: | access to materials, tools and equipment for the techniquesconsistency with the conceptual vision for the proposed drawingsease of application of the techniquespersonal affinity with the techniques. |
