Unit Descriptor
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to produce video art through the exploration and application of a range of techniques, tools, equipment and materials.
Application of the Unit
People still developing their video art expertise apply the skills and knowledge in this unit. They produce finished work building on and combining a range of techniques to support the ideas of the work. There are links between this unit and the camera units in CUF07 Screen and Media Training Package.
At this level, work is usually undertaken under supervision, though some autonomy and judgement can be expected within established parameters.
Licensing/Regulatory Information
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of endorsement.

Performance Criteria |
|
Elements describe the essential outcomes of a unit of competency. |
Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the required skills and knowledge section and the range statement. Assessment of performance is to be consistent with the evidence guide. |
Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Plan video artwork through exploration |
1.1 Explore video art ideas and techniques in consultation with key people 1.2 Review historical and contemporary video art practice as a potential source of ideas 1.3 Refine and clarify ideas for video art based on exploration 1.4 Assess the capabilities of video art techniques through practice and adaptation 1.5 Select techniques that best support the ideas for the work |
|
2. Prepare, maintain and store video art resources |
2.1 Select and organise video art tools, equipment and materials suited to the chosen work 2.2 Prepare and maintain resources based on the needs of the work 2.3 Take responsibility for the safe and sustainable use of resources 2.4 Store resources according to the specific needs of different items |
|
3. Create finished video artwork |
3.1 Safely use and adapt video art techniques to create desired effects 3.2 Review work in progress and make adjustments as required to produce final work in appropriate file formats 3.3 Add value to the current work process and future work by documenting the work progress 3.4 Liaise with others to obtain feedback on work in terms of its technical proficiency and success in communicating ideas |
