Description
This unit covers the skills and knowledge to respond to a brief for the design and production of printed textiles that reflect indigenous Australian cultures.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Design printed textiles to a design brief
  • 1.1 Design brief is interpreted to identify key requirements
  • 1.2 Relevant people are consulted to determine requirements for printed textiles.
  • 1.3 Protocols for development of culturally specific designs are identified and applied.
  • 1.4 Options for use of images are considered.
  • 1.5 Desired effects are identified and experimented with to develop design concepts.
  • 1.6 Design concepts and techniques are assessed for their ability to produce and replicate desired effects.
  • 1.7 Textile design is selected.
  • 1.8 Design is reviewed against brief and principles of design and assessed for commercial response.
2 Prepare for production
  • 2.1 Textile to be printed is identified and prepared for printing.
  • 2.2 Printing processes and practices to be used are selected.
  • 2.3 Tools and equipment to be used are prepared.
3 Produce printed textile
  • 3.1 Printing technique is applied according to OHS practices.
  • 3.2 Tools and equipment are used effectively and safely to achieve desired result.
  • 3.3 Process is analysed to assess outcome in relation to brief.
  • 3.4 Techniques and/or design elements are modified as required.
