Description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to implement systems and processes to manage media assets for screen productions and projects. It applies to individuals working in large enterprises on projects or productions that require a wide range of media assets. They work directly with the creators of audio, video and graphic assets to ensure the asset management system accommodates their needs. They set up conventions for file naming, sourcing, sorting and storing formal documents and media assets. Though reporting to a producer or manager, they work with a fair degree of autonomy. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
