Description
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to manage the multimedia production cycle.This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to manage the multimedia production cycle.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Design a production cycle for a multimedia product
  • 1.1 Management components of the production cycle are identified and coordinated to achieve a defined outcome
  • 1.2 Concepts for multimedia integration are posited and their sequence planned
  • 1.3 Prototype sequences are designed and tested according to job specifications
  • 1.4 Multimedia production is undertaken that conforms to product specifications
  • 1.5 The final product is tested for conformance to specifications and released to client
2 Define the attributes of interactive multimedia products
  • 2.1 The attributes of hypermedia are defined and incorporated into a given production
  • 2.2 The attributes of hypertext are defined and incorporated into a given production
  • 2.3 Linear and interactive information structures are distinguished and incorporated into a given production
3 Manage research
  • 3.1 Client specifications are researched and checked with client to deliver the desired outcome
  • 3.2 Files, documents, images and footage relevant to project requirements are sourced and their functions documented and sequenced
  • 3.3 Liaison with clients is undertaken, records of interviews kept, and specifications monitored within the management of the project to achieve the required outcomes
  • 3.4 Files, documents, images and footage relevant to specific projects are filed for future reference with regard for client confidentiality
4 Manage the multimedia process
  • 4.1 The order of process procedure is determined and documented to deliver the desired outcome
  • 4.2 Costs are determined, checked with client, and documented to deliver the desired outcome
  • 4.3 Quality outcomes are determined and documented and a quality system is established to monitor the quality of the product
  • 4.4 The product outcome is produced fit for the purpose
  • 4.5 The product is tested against specifications prior to client release
  • 4.6 Endorsement of the product by the client is gained to ensure specifications have been fulfilled
The Range Statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Italicised wording in the Performance Criteria is detailed below.
Degree of autonomy
Managing multimedia production is undertaken in the workplace working independently and being able to cope with contingencies

Types of systems
Multimedia systems used in the pre-press sector and associated sectors with which a pre-press organisation may be required to work
The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Knowledge and Skills, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package.
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit
Evidence of the following is essential:
Establish, monitor and evaluate a production cycle including the project management of all technical aspects of the project
Demonstrate an ability to find and use information relevant to the task from a variety of information sources
Produce a portfolio covering a period of THREE months' information on the management of TWO multimedia projects that demonstrates establishing, monitoring and evaluating a production cycle including using attributes of specific multimedia interactivity. The portfolio should include material that covers defined components of a production cycle, concepts for multimedia integration, prototype sequences and attributes, product testing and quality considerations
Evidence for assessment may be gathered from assessment of the unit of competency alone or through an integrated assessment activity

Context of and specific resources for assessment
Assessment must ensure:
evidence for assessment may be gathered from assessment of the unit of competency alone or through an integrated assessment activity

Method of assessment
A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:
direct questioning combined with review of portfolios of evidence and third party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate.


Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended.
