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!

Create 3D digital environments

  1. Use software features to build a previsualisation of environments in relation to reference materials, and submit to relevant personnel for approval
  2. Build realistically detailed environment models and progressively refine them until they meet design requirements
  3. Check integrity of models and ensure spatial relationship (scale, form, weight and volume) meets design requirements
  4. Apply texture coordinates as required
  5. Create and incorporate matte paintings as required
  6. Manipulate software features to apply lighting and shaders as required
  7. Experiment with different lighting rigs and select a rig that meets design requirements
  8. Adopt safe ergonomic practices when using screens and keyboards for extended periods of time
  9. Continuously refine all aspects of 3D digital environments until required creative effect is achieved
  10. Submit environments to relevant personnel for feedback on whether production requirements have been met and make final adjustments as required
