Description
This unit describes the, skills and knowledge required to refine techniques for the development of three-dimensional (3-D) physical models.It applies to individuals working across a range of media and industry contexts who use well developed technical and creative skills to build 3-D models independently or as part of a team. The model could be used as a way of testing or presenting ideas. In some cases the model may be a finished work or artistic piece.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
