Description
This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to use various drawing techniques in the jewellery or object design creative process. The unit covers conventions, language and forms of drawings and the role of drawings in communicating the tactile, visual and spatial features of a design.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Use drawing and rendering techniques to explore design options
  • 1.1 Demonstrate an understanding of the language and forms of drawing and rendering
  • 1.2 Investigate the range of analytical, observational and imaginative drawing techniques for communication of design features and intent
  • 1.3 Explore design options through expressive and gestural drawing
  • 1.4 Explore and sample marks, mark making and surface qualities in drawing
2 Explore tactile and visual qualities of drawing subject
  • 2.1 Develop body, hand and eye coordination in relation to the act of drawing from observation
  • 2.2 Complete a linear analysis of jewellery or object
  • 2.3 Investigate shape, plane and volume in respect to jewellery or object
  • 2.4 Interpret the effect of light on a form
  • 2.5 Consider the picture plane and composition
  • 2.6 Explore real and implied texture
3 Manipulate black and white and coloured drawing media in a creative and sensitive manner
  • 3.1 Explore and use a range of black and white media to develop design options
  • 3.2 Explore and use a range of coloured media appropriate to develop design options
  • 3.3 Use a range of papers and surfaces appropriate to development of design options
4 Use principles of perspective to illustrate spatial illusion
  • 4.1 Use principles of perspective to enhance the spatial illusion of jewellery or objects in space
  • 4.2 Complete freehand perspective drawings showing evidence of an understanding of single, two and three point perspective
  • 4.3 Illustrate views and projections appropriate to design
Design features
Design features may include:
materials

Rendering
Rendering is to include, but not be limited to:
the pictorial representation of aspects and perspectives using colours, highlighting and shading to provide depth and photo-like drawings
Overview of assessment
A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able to apply a range of drawing techniques to illustrate perspectives and features of jewellery or object designs.
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit
Assessors must be satisfied that the candidate can competently and consistently:
demonstrate analytical, observational and imaginative drawing techniques to demonstrate features of jewellery or object designs
produce drawings of jewellery or object designs from single, two and three point perspectives
use drawing tools, materials and techniques to communicate the design features.
Context of and specific resources for assessment
This unit may be assessed on the job, off the job or a combination of both on and off the job.
Where applicable, reasonable adjustment must be made to work environments and training situations to accommodate ethnicity, age, gender, demographics and disability.
Access must be provided to appropriate learning and/or assessment support when required. Where applicable, physical resources should include equipment modified for people with disabilities.
Method of assessment
Assessment must satisfy the endorsed assessment guidelines of the MEM05 Metal and Engineering Training Package.
Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge.
Assessment methods must be by direct observation of tasks and include questioning on underpinning knowledge to ensure its correct interpretation and application.
Assessment may be applied under project-related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process.
Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is able not only to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances.
Assessment may be in conjunction with assessment of other units of competency where required.
Guidance information for assessment
Assessment processes and techniques must be culturally appropriate and appropriate to the language and literacy capacity of the candidate and the work being performed.
