## Ideas for learning the required skills

1.The first mentioned skill can be achieved through absorbing the mentally concentrated part of the picture, for example,it can be an eye or a cloud with some interesting pattern. The mentally concentrated part of the picture will give us a brief about the orientation, shape and basic measurements required to elevate(e.g:a sky is always displayed in a long view,as well as a couple of eyes will be always beautiful when it is shown in a long view with an elevated perfectly shaped eyeballs) the mentally concentrated part. Once the measurements are done we can easily go through the processes related to colors(and sounds,in case of motion pictures) This is always applied during the photography(painting in ancient times), cinematography, architecture, fashion industry, tourism and hospitality related industries and so on. A perfect frame or a perfect measurement is calculated in advance and in accordance with human nature,there is the opportunity to try something new as an experiment or an investment. A perfectly measured frame can become a good representation of the time and the development of the culture as the paintings are preserved to see the old culture and learning new things, so getting involved in classical arts will be helpful to measure the basic element, measurements used to elevate the mental concentrated part of a classic painting will be always useful as they are simply concentrated on the mentally concentrated part the thing which retain in Mind is what called mental concentrated part this part can be elevated by relying on the shape of the part, we can go with a same shape or something contrast but always being aware of what is doing is important which helps in the financial benefits of the work since we can convince the techniques that we used and getting more ideas by spreading it.
2. As we move further we come to know the importance of digital imaging and everyone still not giving digital images it's own credit. A well balanced work is always a good masterpiece no matter what is the medium you used. Colours plays the whital image in visual arts as we go through Colors we will come to know the impact of a well balanced image or a poor quality of illustrations. A modern art painting gets its value through the ideas which are shown without the help of shapes(real shapes). Knowing the importance of learning the Colors is the required skill here. How Colors are associated with mood swings, how they react with the brain all matters. Prioritizing the Colors, arranging them, make relations and splitting relations are some of the most required skills as we go further. Adsorbing the Colors from a verbaly described ideas are advance skilled learning and helps cinematography.Understanding the terms and having a clear idea about the actions that can be carried out is very important. Illustration of relationship will help in achieving that.

## Grading

If you are demonstrating this unit as part of a formal course, you might find that the unit is graded (meaning you can not only demonstrate your competence, but can also gain a credit or distinction). Your facilitator may already have set criteria that your college uses. If not, here are some ideas for possible credit/distinction activities that you can discuss with your facilitator:
