Elements and Performance Criteria
ELEMENT |
PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
Elements describe the essential outcomes. |
Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. |
1. Develop proficiency with a range of performance art techniques and media |
1.1 Evaluate potential for new approaches to performance art based on capabilities of known techniques 1.2 Adapt or introduce new equipment, tools and materials to achieve different effects 1.3 Extend own capability with performance art techniques through experimentation 1.4 Assess safety and sustainability issues for different techniques and media |
2. Develop ideas for performance art |
2.1 Discuss creative and other goals for own performance art with key people 2.2 Research, adapt and use relevant ideas and approaches from other practitioners and comply with intellectual property requirements 2.3 Use knowledge of different performance art techniques to inform ideas 2.4 Consider how different techniques and ideas can best work together 2.5 Assess the professional potential and presentation requirements of own work to inform ideas 2.6 Refine and confirm ideas based on research, experimentation and collaboration with others |
3. Organise performance art resources |
3.1 Identify specific resource requirements for the chosen work 3.2 Research potential sources of supply for performance art resources 3.3 Evaluate cost and other constraints that impact on development of the work 3.4 Evaluate and respond to presentation considerations for finished performance art 3.5 Coordinate required resources and set up according to safety requirements |
4. Realise finished performance art |
4.1 Create performance art using techniques and media selected from research and experimentation, considering and applying elements and principles of design 4.2 Review and refine ideas and approaches based on ongoing experience with production of own work 4.3 Handle equipment, tools and materials safely; minimise and safely dispose of waste throughout all processes 4.4 Document development of own work and the research and ideas that informed it |
5. Evaluate own performance artwork |
5.1 Reflect on own conceptual development and technical execution of the work 5.2 Identify areas for future skill development and options to learn 5.3 Discuss completed work with others and consider all feedback |
