Application

This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to create 3D digital models that meet technical and design specifications.

It applies to individuals who clarify production requirements and produce 3D models under supervision, but may have responsibility for planning their own work. They produce these 3D models primarily for online and mobile device application.

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

Unit Sector

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. Clarify work requirements	1.1 Clarify requirements and purpose for 3D digital models with reference to production documents 1.2 Clarify workflow sequences in consultation with relevant personnel to ensure production schedule deadlines are met 1.3 Clarify with relevant personnel the modelling technique that suits production requirements 1.4 Discuss and select digital modelling software with relevant personnel that suits production delivery platform and modelling techniques 1.5 Gather and analyse reference materials to help visualise 3D models
2. Develop 3D digital models	2.1 Use software features and apply modelling principles to block out models based on reference materials 2.2 Adopt safe ergonomic practices when using screens and keyboards for extended periods of time 2.3 Use software features and geometry to shape models and apply various effects as required 2.4 Check that models’ topology allows appropriate deformation as required 2.5 Refine and check integrity of models progressively until they meet design requirements 2.6 Confirm with relevant personnel that models have not infringed copyright 2.7 Test models to identify faults, and modify as required 2.8 Demonstrate models to relevant personnel for feedback, and make adjustments as required
3 Finalise 3D digital models	3.1 Review 3D models to ensure creative solutions meet design specifications 3.2 Discuss and confirm with relevant personnel additional requirements or modifications to 3D models and undertake necessary amendments 3.3 Render and output models in appropriate format and submit to relevant personnel by agreed deadlines 3.4 Make back-up copies of files, and save and store 3D models using standard naming conventions
