Description
This unit covers the skills and knowledge required to use computer aided design (CAD) programs to produce textile design folios.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Determine folio objectives
  • 1.1 Consultation with client is undertaken to review the textile design specifications and determine folio requirements
  • 1.2 Purpose of folio is analysed and target audience determined
  • 1.3 Type of digital folio required is determined in line with objectives and audience requirements
  • 1.4 Design themes and styles of textile design are identified and analysed in line with folio objectives
  • 1.5 Preliminary planning is discussed to explore options for content and presentation
  • 1.6 FOLIO OBJECTIVES ARE CONFIRMED AND DOCUMENTED
2 Plan folio presentation
  • 2.1 Folio parameters and specifications are determined and planning processes used according to the needs of the folio
  • 2.2 CAD software, programs and equipment are selected and prepared according to specifications and requirements
  • 2.3 Editing and layout requirements are determined and relevant applications selected
  • 2.4 Folio plan is developed and presentation is confirmed with client or personnel
3 Use electronic tools to create folio
  • 3.1 Design programs and equipment are used to create design folio
  • 3.2 Editing software is applied to edit and manipulate folio content to effectively illustrate features of the textile materials, designs and products
  • 3.3 Design programs and equipment are used in accordance with OHS practices
  • 3.4 Folio is assessed against requirements and objectives and presented to appropriate personnel for review
  • 3.5 Improvements are identified and implemented and folio is finalised
  • 3.6 DESIGN FOLIO IS STORED, ORGANISED AND FILED TO ENABLE RETRIEVAL AS REQUIRED
