Evidence of the ability to: - develop creative sound concepts for recording projects - work creatively, collaboratively and constructively with others to produce at least two sound recordings for distribution - adjust recordings to achieve project outcomes - document the evaluation of the recording process, outcomes and own role.

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must: - describe the production requirements that may impact decisions about recording projects - explain the legislative requirements that relate to sound recording - explain how different recording and performance environments affect sound, and what adjustments can be made to produce required sound recordings - explain the sound equipment required for a range of recording situations - describe techniques for evaluating the quality of a sound recording - explain the issues and challenges that typically arise when producing sound recordings, and how to address them.
Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in creative arts industry environments. The assessment environment must include access to: - relevant instruments and equipment - scores, charts or other written music resources - participants, such as performers and technical crew - appropriate recording facilities with adequate space and acoustic qualities. Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational educational and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
