| PURPOSE AND RATIONALE OF THE QUALIFICATION |
| Purpose:
The purpose of the qualification is to ensure specialist competence in all the disciplines related to film and television production, including camera, lighting, vision control, vision mixing, editing, recording, sound and captioning competence, with the elective component allowing for this specialisation. Although qualifying learners are not able to make creative choices, they are capable of working under direction, and to specification, making suggestions to those with creative decision making powers. The qualification addresses competence for studio and outside broadcasts and film and television production, and single and multi-camera productions. There is a need for qualified learners who can work independently according to a given brief, which they often contribute to, without hands-on operational supervision. Qualified learners can enhance film and television products through creativity, quality control, suggestions (e.g. regarding shots) and understanding the effect of their decisions on other people in film and television production process. They are capable of complex tasks within their specific contexts, and can make critical decisions in strenuous environment. They can critically evaluate their own area of responsibility within the context of the full process, and can identify problem areas. They understand their role in the overall context and the industry. They can operate the full functionality of equipment/machines, and can do this for a range of equipment/machines. Qualified learners apply their own methods and understand their area sufficiently to contribute to others. Qualified learners are capable of: Rationale: This qualification sets the minimum standard for addressing the need for competence in film and television production. Various needs for competence exist in the South African television and film industry. The shortage of competence has resulted in inflated rates, and there is a need for a larger pool of competent practitioners. By achieving this qualification, learners can improve their employment opportunities and upward mobility, and qualified learners start on an equal footing, also as far as remuneration is concerned. Target learners are typically from technical, computer, mathematical science or art backgrounds, or have been assisting with camera, lighting, sound, etc. They should have fast reaction times, pay attention to detail, have visual awareness and have physical dexterity. The qualification forms part of a learning pathway that starts with the achievement of a Further Education and Training Certificate: Film and Television Operations (NQF Level 4) and can progress to a National Certificate: Film and Television Management (NQF Level 6). Beyond NQF level 6, the learning pathway requires primarily general management and research competence. Therefore, the achievement of this qualification ensures that learners are competent to produce a specific component of film and television productions, forming the basis for further learning, that is, to manage such productions or components of productions. Qualified learners can find employment as camera persons, sound producers, vision controllers, vision mixers, production coordinators/programme production managers, dolly grips, best boy lights, focus pullers, second assistant directors, art department buyers, boom operators, transport captains, unit and location assistants, casting coordinators, extras, content writers for genre scripts, continuity assistants, stunts persons, insert editors, etc. By achieving the competence required to qualify, learners are able to contribute to the production of quality film and television products. Quality products can compete internationally, and ensures the economic viability of the industry. In addition, the qualification can ensure that small business owners in the film and television industry to direct their own productions, thus opening entrepreneurship opportunities. Good products contribute to audience appreciation, messages being conveyed effectively and as intended, and improve access to information for the public. The qualification also requires learners to promote safety, health and environment protection in the production process. In general, quality film and television productions have social, educational and economic value for the industry and the viewing public. |
| LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING |
| It is assumed that the learner already has the following competencies:
Recognition of Prior Learning: This qualification can be achieved wholly, or in part, through recognition of prior learning. Evidence can be presented in a variety of forms, including previous international or local qualifications, reports, testimonials, mentoring, functions performed, portfolios, work records and performance records. As such, evidence should be judged according to the general principles of assessment described in the notes to assessors below. Learners who have met the requirements of any Unit Standard that forms part of this qualification may apply for recognition of prior learning to the relevant Education and Training Quality Assurance body (ETQA). The applicant must be assessed against the specific outcomes and with the assessment criteria for the relevant Unit Standards. A qualification will be awarded should a learner demonstrate that the exit level outcomes of the qualification have been attained. Access to the qualification: Access to the qualification requires that the learner is adequately sighted for given requirements of specific production contexts. |

| ASSOCIATED ASSESSMENT CRITERIA |
| 1.
> Range: Procedures relate to what, where, when and how information is recorded. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Integrated Assessment: The assessment criteria in the unit standards are performance-based, assessing applied competence, rather than only underpinning knowledge, or only skills. The critical cross-field outcomes are also achieved in the unit standards. In addition to the competence assessed to achieve the unit standards, learners must demonstrate that they can achieve the outcomes in an integrated manner, dealing effectively with different and random demands related to occupational and learning contexts, to qualify, and assessment approaches used should be appropriate for assessing applied competence. Integrated assessment is meaningful if there are clear relationships between the purpose statement, exit level outcomes and integrated assessment of this qualification. Learners who qualify must be able to integrate concepts, ideas and behaviours across unit standards to achieve the purpose of the qualification. Evidence (as specified in the associated assessment criteria) is required that the learner is able to achieve the exit level outcomes of the qualification as a whole and in an integrated way, and thus its purpose, at the time of the award of the qualification. Evidence of integration may be presented by learners when being assessed against the unit standards, and separate assessment for integration may not be necessary. Workplace experience can be recognised when assessing towards this qualification. Integrated assessment should include observable performance as well as the quality of thinking behind such performance. Formative assessment can be employed during learning towards the unit standards and during integration to achieve exit level outcomes, to ensure that integration takes place when summative assessment is employed. |
| INTERNATIONAL COMPARABILITY |
| Countries that are the most active in the film and television industry are India, Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, Canada, Switzerland, the United Kingdom (UK), Russia and the United States of America (USA). USA and UK programmes separate film from television, and combine television and radio in other programmes. The South African market cannot sustain this separation at the present time, thus this qualification allows for both television and film specialisations, with radio as a separate qualification. In most countries, undergraduate programmes are the entry level.
The countries that have formal industry and support associations include: Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Canada, Chile, China, Croatia, Cuba, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Egypt, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Ghana, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Korea, Lebanon, Lithuania, Luxemburg, Malaysia, Malta, Maroc, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Nigeria, Norway, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Scotland, Serbia - Montenegro, Singapore, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland, Spain, Taiwan, Thailand, Tunisia, The Netherlands, Ukraine, UK, Uruguay, USA, Venezuela, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe. For purposes of international comparison, education and training in film and television production in India, Australia, New Zealand, France, Germany, Canada, Switzerland, the UK, Russia and the USA were selected as they are the leading industries internationally. However, information could only be obtained for India, Australia, New Zealand, the UK, and the USA. In addition, Argentina, Brazil and African countries were also selected, as they are considered economic or social equivalents. In Brazil entry level programmes are offered over one year. The programmes include learning how to write, direct, shoot and edit own films, and to work in crew positions in films. Very similar to this South African qualification, the aim of the qualification is for learners to find their way into a career as screenwriters, directors, cinematographers, editors or documentary filmmakers, and then choosing a main area from the following: directing, cinematography, post-production, screenwriting or documentary. The most notable difference between this South African and the Brazilian qualification is that the South African qualification does not include documentaries as a separate set of competence and that the Brazilian programmes include acting. The entry-level qualification in Kenya is a three year qualification in film and television production, and, therefore, is not the equivalent of this South African qualification. In Ghana learners can attain a Higher Diploma (e.g. National Film and Television Institute), Diploma or Certificate. A one-year Certificate offered by the Academy of Screen Arts includes screenwriting, directing, public speaking/interviewing, acting, 2D animation, film history, film appreciation and analysis, set design, and cinematography. This does not compare with the South Africa qualification, except for being similar to the entrepreneurship elective stream. Other African countries that offer film, television and video production undergraduate, graduate and post graduate programmes include Liberia (B.A.), Nigeria (Diploma, Higher Diploma, Postgraduate Diploma, B.A., M.A., Ph.D.), Tanzania (Diploma), Uganda (Diploma), Zambia (Diploma, Certificate, B.A.) and Zimbabwe (Diploma). In Zimbabwe, UNESCO was sponsoring a film and video training project that ran between 4 and 8 weeks, which was also an NQF Level 5 course, but no information regarding the course was available. India is said to be the largest film producing country in the world, with around eight hundred films in various languages being made in the country every year. Close to sixty satellite television channels are currently operating in the country. Learning programmes include from 3 month to more than 3 year programmes. The programmes in India also combine film and television competence. Four three month programmes are recognised. There are major differences between the South African qualification and the programmes offered in India. Radio, music, still photography, designing sets, and acting and presenting are included in programmes in India, but are not part of this qualification as the areas of competence are awarded separate qualifications. The learning time is also much shorter than this South African qualification. In the USA, television and radio production programmes are combined, and film learning programmes are separate. Most programmes are at undergraduate and graduate level, and one year programmes (usually not accredited) are offered by some providers, focusing more on skills than knowledge components. The one-year programmes usually include entry level competence for 16mm, 35mm and digital filmmaking, acting, cinema studies, screenwriting, film production, casting, producing, sync-sound recording, cinematography, editing and sound design, pre-production, and post-production. The main difference with this qualification is that the South African qualification does not include acting. Various qualifications used to be listed on the UK framework for each of the elective components in the South African qualification. For example, learners could attain a qualification in camera operations. There were three qualifications for Film, television and video production, at the equivalent of South African NQF Levels 3, 4 and 5. The UK Level 4 qualification (South African NQF Level 5 equivalent) was very similar to this South African qualification core component and all aspects of the elective component. However, no further information is currently available. New Zealand has only one relevant qualification on the framework, at a level below this South African qualification. However, New Zealand Film and Television School and South Seas Film and Television School offer programmes at the equivalent level of and of equivalent duration compared to the South African. The New Zealand Film and Television School programmes compare as follows with this South African qualification: New Zealand Film and Television School - South Africa: The New Zealand programme is more knowledge-based, and do not address all the areas of competence in the South African qualification as it does not include the practical application of skills in all cases. This South African qualification differs from other countries' qualifications in structure, with more complex competence required in one area of specialisation for the elective component in the South African qualification. The South African qualification does not include acting competence, as this is handled in a separate qualification. |

| This information shows the current accreditations (i.e. those not past their accreditation end dates), and is the most complete record available to SAQA as of today. Some Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionaries have a lag in their recording systems for provider accreditation, in turn leading to a lag in notifying SAQA of all the providers that they have accredited to offer qualifications and unit standards, as well as any extensions to accreditation end dates. The relevant Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionary should be notified if a record appears to be missing from here. |
