This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to interpret musical scores in conjunction with musical specialists to determine and deliver technical elements of productions in the screen, media, entertainment and events industries. Individuals who apply these skills are expected to display initiative, judgement and responsibility as they apply analytical and communication skills to the process of plotting cues from musical scores and delivering technical elements from scores during performances. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Students will attend on campus classes as well as engage in learning activities through ECU Blackboard.

Evidence of the ability to: Plot cues from musical scores for at least two performances. Use cue reference documents to deliver technical elements from musical scores during performances on at least two occasions. Take direction from creative and technical personnel during performances. Meet work deadlines. Work collaboratively. Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided for each of the above points at least once.
To complete the unit requirements the individual must: Describe the main features of musical scores and how they relate to the process of plotting cues from scores. Explain the range of notations used to create accurate technical references from scores. Describe issues and challenges that can arise when plotting and managing cues from scores, along with solutions to address them.
Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the live entertainment and events industries. The assessment environment must include access to musical scores and performances which require the plotting and managing of cues from scores. Assessors must satisfy SNR/AQTF assessor requirements.
