Description
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to perform a simple sequence or piece for an audience. Techniques employed include acting, singing, dancing, movement, mime, acrobatics and improvisation. Performances could be in commercial, competition or community settings and performers would usually be working in ensembles, partnerships or performing solo.At this level performers are refining their techniques through practice, and while some supervision and guidance may be present in practice, a high level of motivation and sense of responsibility for themselves and others is expected in live performance situations.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
