Release 1

This version first released with CUA Creative Arts and Culture Training Package Version 5.0.

Application

This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to use basic carpentry skills to assist with the construction of set elements for productions in the screen, media, entertainment and events industries. It involves determining construction and material requirements, assisting with the construction of set elements and reviewing the outcomes of one’s own work.

The unit applies to those who work under broad supervision and act autonomously within established parameters as they use hand and power tools, and a range of materials and techniques, to create simple set elements, such as flats and treads.

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

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. Prepare for set construction

1.1 Determine set construction requirements in consultation with supervisor

1.2 Select materials for set construction according to supervisor’s instructions

1.3 Calculate quantities of required materials

1.4 Select equipment and tools according to materials being used and type of set construction required

2. Assist with the construction of set elements

2.1 Assist with the construction of set elements using different basic techniques

2.2 Complete set construction tasks in a logical sequence

2.3 Work cooperatively with other team members during construction of set elements

3. Review outcomes of work

3.1 Seek feedback on work in progress and adjust as required

3.2 Identify problems with work in progress and take action within scope of responsibility according to organisational policies and procedures

3.3 Contribute to evaluations of set construction processes and note ways to improve own work performance

Foundation Skills

This section describes those language, literacy, numeracy and employment skills that are essential to performance but not explicit in the performance criteria.

Performance Evidence

The candidate must demonstrate the ability to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, including evidence of the ability to:

  • construct simple set elements according to at least two different set construction requirements.

In the course of the above, the candidate must:

  • follow safety procedures throughout the set construction process
  • produce set elements that are technically feasible and of a quality level that meets production requirements
  • work cooperatively with others during set construction.

Knowledge Evidence

The candidate must be able to demonstrate knowledge to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, including knowledge of:

  • types of materials used for set construction and the reasons for selecting different materials
  • current technology used to construct set elements that includes 3D printing
  • common types of joint and assembly techniques used in set construction and the contexts in which they are used
  • work health and safety requirements of set construction context described in performance evidence relating to:
  • fireproofing
  • safe manual-handling techniques
  • using hand and power tools
  • working with hazardous substances.

Assessment Conditions

Skills in this unit must be demonstrated in a workplace or simulated environment where the conditions are typical of those in a working environment in this industry.

This includes access to:

  • basic set construction materials.

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