What an assessment for CUAHAZ405 must cover

65 assessable components: 7 elements (37 performance criteria), 13 performance evidence and 8 knowledge evidence requirements, plus 7 foundation skills. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

  • 5.6Confirm continuity of hazardous action sequences is maintained throughout execution

6 Respond to emergency situations

  • 6.1Abort activities and implement emergency plans in event of accidents
  • 6.2Clear sites of all personnel and remove items that may cause further injury as required
  • 6.3Identify items and locations that may need to be isolated for safety and investigative activities
  • 6.4Advise required personnel of emergency situations according to established procedures

7 Secure locations on completion of hazardous action sequences

  • 7.1Check inventory, transport and store all production equipment and elements used in executing hazardous action sequences, in accordance with regulatory and safety requirements
  • 7.2Inspect locations and confirm they are left in a safe and secure state
  • 7.3Assess condition of elements and equipment used in hazardous sequences and advise required personnel of any issues
  • 7.4Participate in post-sequence evaluations and provide feedback to guide future productions
  • 7.5Complete personal logbook and contribute to final written reports as required

Performance evidence

  • perform at least two different hazardous action sequences involving at least one of the following: • vehicles • natural elements • fights and falls • animals.
  • review production documentation and consult with required personnel in preparation for hazardous action sequences
  • take visual continuity into account when preparing for sequences
  • confirm logistical arrangements and communication protocols for shoots
  • check all aspects of locations, elements and equipment for compliance with licensing, safety standards and regulatory requirements, and industry codes of practice prior to executing sequences
  • check camera positions and note visual cues for positioning elements and equipment during hazardous action sequences
  • abort sequences if testing reveals unacceptable risk levels
  • perform hazardous action sequences according to safely controls, regulatory requirements and production requirements
  • follow correct procedures for responding to emergency situations that occur during sequence execution
  • comply with applicable personal protective equipment (PPE) requirements
  • assist with clearing locations at the conclusion of shoots
  • contribute to post-sequence evaluations
  • use effective verbal, non-verbal and written communication skills.

Knowledge evidence

  • roles and responsibilities of film crew and specialist production and location management personnel involved in executing hazardous action sequences in screen productions
  • procedures and protocols for engaging with emergency and medical services
  • communication channels employed on location
  • common hazards related to the following elements, equipment and processes used to perform hazardous action sequences in screen productions, and their potential for causing harm: • driving vehicles • using animals • using natural elements • performing fights and falls
  • safety issues in relation to the use and position of camera, sound and lighting equipment during hazardous action sequences involving: • driving vehicles • using animals • using natural elements • performing fights and falls
  • safety practices required to remove, isolate or minimise hazards during hazardous action sequences involving: • driving vehicles • using animals • using natural elements • performing fights and falls

Questions about assessing CUAHAZ405

What does an assessment tool for CUAHAZ405 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for CUAHAZ405 needs to address all 65 unit components: 7 elements with 37 performance criteria, 13 performance evidence requirements, 8 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for CUAHAZ405?

Auditori pulls the current release of CUAHAZ405 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for CUAHAZ405 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing CUAHAZ405 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of CUAHAZ405, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
